Tips on Flying to Dulles

*** Snip from Bryan: ***

That's great Jay. Tell Margy Sue can show her the mall, LOL. Assuming
that Margy loves to shop. The offer's good, just let me know prior and
we'll work out the detail. Manassas is thirty minutes away, Leesburg
is 12-15 min. away from Dulles, these two places are probably 10 times
(gross exaggeration) cheaper, fuel and tie-downs or hangering. Let me
know what you want to know and I'll see if I can get you some answers.

Bryan, I think you may have your women mixed up. (I *hate* that when that
happens...;-) "Mary" is my wife. "Margy" is the lady who is organizing the
show at Udvar-Hazy.

You also have to realize that Mary is (God love her!) a pilot, too, and
would probably rather explore the NASM than go to any mall in the world.
But I'll pass the offer along to her! :-)

Also, I think that Margy is working on a deal so that we can park at Dulles
without selling our first-born.

Well, I hate to shop and when I think "show her the mall" I'm thinking the
museums on THE MALL. I hope Jay, Mary and the kids stay in town for a
bit. We should all go out for dinner and I can probably swing a day off
to do the museum stuff.

I don't know yet how long we can stay. A lot is going to depend on
staffing at the hotel, and what arrangements we've got for lodging, cars,
etc. Since Bryan has kindly offered us free lodging, it looks like we're
set in that regard -- but other things are very much in flux.

Do you have any info on parking/landing fees yet? If we stay for several
days, are they going to crucify us with gigantic parking fees?
