Have never toured the White House, but that sounds like the thing to do on my next trip. Was also interested on your opinion of Foggy Bottom area. Thank you again. tish Lou — Another great comment!

It is quite possible to do, but you must plan in advance. Contact your senator or rep and ask for the info. Basically you supply travelers names and when you are going and they request free tickets for you. There is a security clearance in advance now, but still one of the really funthings to do. Also, If you stay in Foggy Bottom area i.e. Doubletree or Watergate Hotel, you are so close to metro- particuarily Doubletree. From there you can go anywhere. This is the stop for GW Hospital and Kennedy Center- short stroll over to Georgetown. One of the most special things in DC is a tour of White House.
