[quote=Anonymous]As someone who lives in Burleith (adjacent to Georgetown but with much better parking), we actually do a lot of stuff across the bridge in Arlington. On the weekend, it's a quick drive to cross the bridge if you want to go to Rosslyn, Courthouse, VA Square for a meal or errands/service providers or doctors/therapists. GWU Mt Vernon campus has a summer pool club and swim team that competes in the local pool club league. 5 min drive from Georgetown. Georgetown U has swim lessons for kids year round. Cabin John is a pleasant 12-15 minute drive on the weekends. We prefer it to Bethesda (where we have lots of other family members). It feels like we live in a walkable village, but can easily take advantage of the best of nearby NoVA or downtown DC via car. For example, going to a museum in DC is not a big production for us - its a 10-15 minute drive on the weekend. If kids only want to do an hour in a museum, that's fine. [/quote]
