Sightseeing
Just simply walking the Mall is a great way to see all the famous monuments, such as the Capitol Building, Washington Monument, WWII Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the Korean War Memorial. Don't forget to take in the the tidal basin so you can see the FDR Memorial, MLK, Jr Memorial and the Jefferson Memorial (my favorite!). Be sure to wear good walking shoes!

There is a lot to see here. A couple of my favorite exhibits include the First Ladies' dresses, the American flag that flew that inspired Francis Scott Key's writing of our national anthem, and the Greensboro, NC Woolworth's counter from the Civil Rights sit-ins.
