Notes
Near the airport that I'll be flying into. We should go here right after I get picked up from the airport. This way we can avoid the rush hour traffic into DC. We can spand all morning here and try to do lunch in DC.

Where should I go to in DC? I know that I will see everything in the National Mall. What museums should I visit? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
