Default Weekend in DC

Well, thinking about doing a weekend in Washington DC... I know we
have had this discussion in the past but I'm too lazy to look it up -
and things may have changed...

I ask the wisdom of the group which is the best airport to use?
Any suggestions on a hotel?
What are the 'must' touristy things to do?

I would cheerfully spend every minute at the Smithsonian or the
National Gallery of Art, however my signifcant other doesn't find that
very exciting, so I will need to adjust to her wants...

Come the weekend of June 14th and you can actually be on display at the
Smithsonian!

Apply soon as the "apply to participate" page will vanish soon.

email me at work nataliem (followed by) @ (followed by) si.edu if
you have questions.

It will be a GREAT day and you can RON at Dulles.

What does your spouse find exciting. I suggest (other than the day at
the fly-in)

Start at the top of the Washinton Monument
conservatory
botanical gardens
NASM (both locations)
Duck boat tour

There's LOTS of stuff in DC

Plays, food, food, food
