What happens when 3 NY's invade DC??? Beats me, but I guess we'll find out this weekend LOL. My fiance, a friend, and myself are coming down tonight to see my parents (they live in Trappe, MD) and we'll be expolring DC on Saturday/Sunday. What things do you guys recomend seeing that aren't typical tourist things?

The National Cathedral reportedly has a Darth Vader gargoyle head, but unfortunately I just checked their website and it can't be viewed right now due to construction.

The Air and Space Museum at the Smithsonian is pretty cool, if a bit touristy.
If you're interested in catching plays or other local events, you can check out the entertainment section at www.washingtonpost.com

I don't know. Being a geek I rarely venture from in front of my computer

Sure wish I'd gotten a chance to hop on line on Friday! I leave my computer as often as possible.
All the museums are fun and FREE! For wandering, I recommend Georgetown. Oh, and the monuments. Who knew Lincoln was so tall!

Well we ended up at the Museum of American History where my fiance geeked out over Julia Child's kitchen, and I was staring at the First Ladies' Gowns. Sunday we spent at the Museum of Natural History where we spent mostof our time in the Gems and Minerals wing (I'm a geology nut, what can I say lol). We ate dinner in Georgetown (some Trukich place that was okay but pricey - I've had better for less in NYC), and had breakfast monday morning in Easton at Coffee East (delicious with great prices). Except for the wind blowing like 45MPH it wasn't too bad We'll probably be back fro president's day weekend next month
