We're planning a trip there in a few weeks. 3 day weekend. Staying with family so we don't need a hotel.

It'll just be me, my husband and our 6 month old daughter. So we need places to go that are kid friendly.


I searched and all the old threads were regarding "where to stay" and the others were too old to bump.

thanks

Postal Museum and then just taken in all the places to eat. D.C. is a great food city.

if you do a couple museums, thats a day right there, considering the crowds you'll encounter on weekends...entertaining for the kids and all that

you can get pretty cheap Nats tickets if they're in town ($18 bucks for upper deck seats if i remember right)...the park is pretty nice because it's still in the inaugural season, and everyone loves a nice day at the ball park.

if youre really ambitious, try to get a day in up in baltimore...the inner harbor is a good time/chage of pace from the tourist throng and only about a 35-40 min drive from the beltway
