We just got back from our family vacation in Washington DC. Crystal's apartment was lovely, and had plenty of room for our family of five. The Metro was just a block down and was an easy ride to all the sights, and there was a grocery store just around the corner. We rented a car, but only used it the day we went out to the Smithsonian hanger at Dullas Airport. There was an unexpected snow storm the day after we arrived. The entire city was shut down, but Crystal was great, giving us ideas for things we could do anyway, and offering to loan us DVDs. She was also good with advice for nearby restaurants and touring ideas. We will defiantly stay here again when we return!
