Thanks everyone! Keep 'em coming!

We called our congressman and were able to get a tour of the Capital from one of his aids. They even let us on the floor of the house since they weren't in session. Security is up, but it is in every building in DC anyway.

Definitly try to spend some time at the Viet Nam, Korean and WWII memorials. The WWII isn't done yet, but enough is finished to get the idea. Its hard not to get choked up walking throught the Viet Nam memorial...still giving me goose bumps.

I wasn't paying attention before, but if you have older kids, think to take FRS radios. They allow the kids to wander, and they can be in constant radio contact. They are cheap, have lots of open channels, and keep them connected, while allowing you to browse your interests...

Plan on another trip, because you will never see it all!
