Taking the kids to DC...

[Darth Biscuit]

For the National Science Fair at the Mall this weekend... anybody ever done this... suggestions welcome.

[Captroop]

Done what? The Science Fair? D.C.? Or the Science fair at D.C?

never been to DC...but it's on my list of must sees.

Please provide a detailed report when you return....minus the gay stuff I know you'll be doing.

I've done some pretty geeky things in my day, and with my job damn near every day, but this completely takes the nerdcake.

The Spy Museum is VERY cool for all ages. One of the only museums you have to pay for there, but worth it.

went to DC for my SR trip in HS, and most would say I wasted it. rather than attending all the scheduled tours my friends and I ditched and bounced around the city the whole time. it was pretty great, but I do wish I had gone to the smithsonian.

I was there last year and had a great time. I've never been to the science fair but that sounds pretty awesome. Of course hit as many museums as you can. The Georgetown area is pretty cool. You could also take time and look around the campus and give them an idea of college life (minus the sex and drinking) so they know what they are working towards.

Scrums right... it is nerdy, but hey, they want to go and it sounds fun. We're pretty much going strictly for the science fair... I doubt we'll have time to do any museums as much as I'd like to. This is a spur of the moment kind of thing and I need to get back to work Monday or we would spend a few days up there.

Here's the link to the thing...

So again, what are you asking advice on, Biscuit? What to do on the mall with the kids? Nightlife? What are the must-sees in a short window of time?

I can definitely give you some tips, but I need more info on what you are looking for.

Well I guess I was asking more specifically about the science fair part... I've been to DC, but it's been a while... and like I said, we won't really have time for the museums and stuff.

Oh, in that case, find out where the Catholic Girl's school have their exhibit on humans and dinosours living on Earth at the same time and take pictures.
