| We're in town for Prez day weekend. Anything you've done in the past that you've liked? WE have 2 kids 9 and 11 who will just be off Friday before (14) and Monday (presidents day) |

| We don't live in DC - we live in the suburbs about 35 mins outside. We often go in and go to a Smithsonian museum over a long weekend - we don't get in with the whole family that much otherwise these days. But you may do that all the time, IDK. |

Mt. Vernon used to be free on Pres Day if your kids are interested (mine aren't but YMMV).
The pandas made a debut. Try the zoo. Otherwise we treat it like a reg weekend - walk Great Falls (or any of the county parks), tons of museums and historic things around here, |
