Planning a day in DC

[jestro]

I didn't even know Arlington was in DC. I thought it was Virginia for some reason. There's too much stuff to do over there, we're gonna have to start early.

It is.

Nobody mentions Arlington National Cemetary when they talk about visiting DC.

Its a shame because you will be very moved by the hushed atmosphere and the respect that even tourists show when walking about this place.
Take the guided tour tram things if you don't have a lot of time because its a hike from the parking area to the main stuff you want to see. (kennedy, unknowns, etc).
Or you can walk around and see cool monuments and gravesites from the Civil war era to rows and rows of perfectly alligned crosses. Even see funerals that are going on today with the distant gun fire that will give you goose bumps.
Will give you much insight and respect for the sacrafices made over the years as an american.

its closed at night (iv tried) and its way too hot during the day

Plus, arlington is just a little out of the way for people who are visiting DC only for the day. Depending on traffic that could tack on 30 minutes each way of driving.

Yeah, and we are coming from the Easton area, and that's like, 1.5hrs?
And my sister's dumb ass always takes so long to get out the door, I think I'm going to have to whip some people into shape.
