My mom and I went to DC last week and these are 2 recommendations I can make re: DC. First, is the Old Town Trolley Tours, which is a hop on hop off tour that goes on all day and will pick you up and drop you off at some hotels. The drivers are friendly and know a lot about history. They are also the only hop on hop off tour bus that goes into Arlington, which is a must see. I was very impressed with their service and would use this tour in any city they are in.
Second is the Museum of the Bible. I highly recommend this as well. It is only 2 blocks south of the Smithsonian. It is huge and has many cool exhibits that takes hours to see. It was a very interesting and amazing museum. And it is free! Although donations are welcome. They have a fly over ride ($5) that shows you where the Bible is in the capital, exhibits about the old and new testament, a living village during Jesus' time, tons of Bibles, and an exhibit on how the Bible has influenced cultures throughout the world. It is almost overwhelming all the artifacts there are to see.
So we had fun in our nation's capital. As well as the previous time we were there, we visited some of the Smithsonian museums, and toured the many monuments and memorials. Everyone there was so friendly and helpful, I was amazed and proud of our nation's capital. I do love to travel!
