We are near Washington DC...oh my....so many cars and people...wow...We went into a suburb of DC yesterday late afternoon and went to neice and nephew's place...then they drove downtown DC and we went to eat....Lots of fun! Then did a drive around the mall area...Saw it all lit up....and it was gorgeous! Then back to their house and visited and talked and laughed and laughed...we had such a nice time! Then had to find our way back to our campsite! Oh our GPS was invaluable!!! worked like a dream!! Worth the money!!  Today we did laundry and now going to relax!  Tomorrow going to go into DC on the campground shuttle and get a tour bus....will probably do that 2 or 3 times this week! So much to see! Hugs, Ruth

Good idea taking the shuttle and tour bus! I wouldn't want to drive around DC!

No tour of the White House....you need to contact your Senator about a year in advance....we didn't do all that....so will look at other things!

It sounds like you're having a wonderful time. I'd like so much to go back to Washington DC. It's been ... hmm... 40 years since I went and I was a young and foolish teen at the time, so didn't appreciate the significance of the things I saw.
