You must see the Holocaust Museum, the American History Museum (more to see than trains!), The Archives, Monuments, White House, Mount Vernon, Capitol Building. I am panicking that you won't see them or know about them being right there. There's a little blue tourist bus that keeps going around the mall and will pick you up and drop you off all day with your ticket. If you ask, you can find out about their bus that takes you to Mt. Vernon. I am glad you know how to get there from the hotel, anyway. More fun if your dad could go, of course. I'm glad you have good walking shoes! S
