Just get the uber app and plot the trip around the time you’re thinking to check the price

Most museums are closed on Wednesdays. Just double check says. Arlington tours are long. Tomb of the unknown soldiers,

The Air and Space Museum out at Dulles is cool, as is the national zoo.

How did it differ than Air & Space @ National Mall?

Full size, modern airplanes.

I'd use the circulator bus for getting around the mall. Everything is much further apart than most expect. (edit added)

They have scooters you can rent. Makes the mall much easier to navigate.

From what I can gather, Smithsonian Museums don't require tickets anymore.

African American history museum still needs passes

We saved a lot by not worrying about rental/parking and it was much more

Seems like it would be a current administration problem if still under lockdown.

panacablue

10/17/21 7:27pm

Maybe. No other administration had to deal w/ a domestic siege on the Capitol

BYU'01

Uber could run you about $50 each way. Lyft will probably be cheaper. Either way

Contact your congressman or senator about booking a tour of the Capital. We did it and it is very cool. Also, Gettysburg
