Other than museums, what do you recommend to do in DC for two nights?

Any suggestions welcome.

If anybody knows if it's possible to go on a tour of the Capital, please let me know.

Walk the Mall, but you should do it before sunset.

Yes but I think you have to arrange it through a senator or rep's office.

BTW, it's very overrated.

The intern who gave me my tour was bloody gorgeous. And watching a Senate vote on war funding was neat.

I agree. Other than visiting Sky Valet, I tend to pass on visiting Georgetown when I'm in DC.

It's almost impossible to get hired on the Hill if you're ugly. When you see an unattractive staffer, assume he/she's utterly brilliant as his/her job.

You were lucky you got to tour during a vote.

I hate that damn place. Rather go to Inner harbor in Baltimore.
