Things To Do
Smithsonian National Zoological Park
3001 Connecticut Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20008
The zoo is free! To get there, we’d recommend getting off at the Cleveland Park Metro stop (Kaitlin’s old neighborhood), for a downhill walk to the zoo and lots of great food options.
Smithsonian National Museum of American History
1300 Constitution Avenue Northwest, Washington, DC 20560
Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center
14390 Air and Space Museum Parkway, Chantilly, VA 20151
Probably Sam’s favorite Smithsonian museum and worth the drive out there. There’s also an Air and Space museum in DC on the Mall for a more accessible option.
Theodore Roosevelt Island
Washington, DC
A short walk from the Rosslyn Metro stop
United States Botanic Garden
100 Maryland Avenue Southwest, Washington, DC 20001
Close to the Mall and Capitol Buidling. Our favorite part is the orchid room.
George Washington's Mount Vernon
3200 Mount Vernon Memorial Highway, Mount Vernon, VA 22121
This is where we got engaged! It has great views of the Potomac River and is close to our venue.
For all the days along the way
