Pointless thread? No way! DC is full of things no matter WHAT your interests are. I lived there for 3 years (I was going to school) and I STILL missed some stuff.

Karen is SO right, do some checking and make a plan for what you want to see. Maybe look through some books at the library and check out one or two to take home and pour over. You can't see it all in 3 days but you sure can have fun!

It will be HOT in June down there; so prepare for that too.

It is a place where you do LOTS AND LOTS of walking, so take good foot wear.
