Looking for advice for a DC trip.

metro does do day and week passes, not sure where mooby's coming from with that:

not cheap though. i remember when day passes were under $5. getting old.

hit air and space, natural history, anything else is up to you. lots of people like the holocaust museum, but if you've watched a ton of the history channel (when it was 24/7 ww2 docus) there may not be much new there.

as for food, i can't really help there. don't eat at the museums though, unless $12 happy meals sounds like a good deal.

outside of DC there are a lot of great parks/hiking/boat stuff/etc depending on what you want to do.

Whoops, it appears I'm wrong on that. I had no idea they were doing that, last time I looked (admittedly it was years ago) I couldn't find anything and I never heard an announcement about it so I assumed wrong.
