Title: Headed to DC

I probably won't see much beyond the airport(s) and the convention center I'm working at, but the chill will be in the air nonetheless...

Hope your bringing your CAP'er uniform just in case. :angel:

Be careful in Washington DC, go down the wrong street and you may never come back.  >:D  Interesting the amount of law enforcement staffing in all the tourist visiting areas in the city, once you get out of that area BEWARE!!!!   

Hey just remember about the chill, apparently with was chiller before and the voters decided to warm it up a bit.  Maybe this time they will think it's chiller again and vote more hot air in! :-\

Which airport are you flying into? I recommend DCA over IAD because of fast metrorail access to downtown.  Though if you go into IAD you can also see the Air and Space Museum annex (if you never been there before).

Reagan.  Saw the Washington Monument and Capital on the way in. From there a SuperShuttle to the Gaylord.  I may get to take a ride on the Potomac, but beyond that it'll probably just be the convention center.

I went to DC about too-three weeks ago? I saw the pentagon, washington memorial, white house...etc. It was amazing! I hope you have fun and get the chance to see everything.

Remember the Pentagon is really in Virginia, so are both IAD and DCA.  Did you see the Air and Space museum?  It's a must see!
