Smithsonian Station
The train station at the Smithsonian. It comes out on Independence Ave and you have to walk over to the Mall. June 6 Monday Evening
I drove from my campground to the Franconia-Springfield Station and stopped and filled up my truck on the way. Cost $74.53! Hopefully it will last a bit as I am using the train to go into and back out of DC.
I took the Blue Line in to DC. I had intended to visit quite a few places but after visiting the Air and Space Museum decided that I had seen enough for one day and wanted to get back out of town before the rush hour when the train would be crowded. I left at 3:30 and the trains had plenty of room so guess I did right.
It cost me about $8:50 round trip near as I could tell. And $4.50 for parking at the station.
The museums are free.
It's a hot day now but hopefully it will cool off before I get back to my campground. After I get through using the Internet connection at MacDonalds I guess I will go find somewhere to eat and do some shopping. That ought to give it time to cool off a bit.
