We love D.C. thanks for showing some of our favourite places. If anyone is planning on visiting D.C. and would like a tour of the monuments, I’d thoroughly recommend looking up Trip Hacks D.C. the owner, Rob, is very knowledgeable and does a great walking tour. The museums were a godsend while we were there last time because it was so hot. Natural History & Air & Space are personal favourites. Thanks for showing us around
We love DC have family who live in Alexandria and have been a couple of times so much to see and I still think the metro is the cleanest one we have ever been on.
We really enjoyed Washington DC when we visited years ago but we were only there for one night so would love to go back. Nice to see that like in London the big museums are free.
I thoroughly enjoyed that! I visited there in the late 90s when I was a teenager. My favorite place, just for relaxing, was the little pond or lake near the Jefferson Memorial, and my favorite museums were the Holocaust Museum and the National Archives, even as a teenager.
I’ve only been once,but loved it.Got the hop on hop off bus.So many great things to see.The White House was smaller than I expected.Thanks for sharing .
We went to DC a few years ago. Had stayed with friends in Maryland and needed somewhere secure to park car, as had all our luggage with us, as we were travelling onward to Orlando. So we researched and the Arlington Cemetery Parking was by far the cheapest at $8 for the day !! And safest in DC ! We did Arlington Cemetery, Lincoln Memorial, Washington Monument, Second World War Memorial and White House, all in around 6 hours. Then drive the Dulles to fly down to FL……….A great day 🥰
This is cool for me because the one and only time i was there was in 1984 and there was nothing but trees around the Smithsonian Institute and ofc you could see the Lincoln memorial i think. it was said it would take a person 88 years to stop and read everything on every exhibit in the Smithsonian back then i wonder what it is today? seems impossible right? I am enjoying seeing how it is now very cool!
Went on a day trip to Washington by coach when we were staying in NJ from England. Loved the Lincoln memorial, Vietnam Memorial, Smithsonian, and Georgetown. Back then you could get up a lot closer to the White House. My kids were very young then and were really surprised how small it was. Everyone else on the coach spent the afternoon in McSorleys and were asleep by 6pm as we drove out of the City. They missed how impressive it looked illuminated. We had gone round Arlington Cemetery on the way there. Really stunning.
Growing up in Maryland, the majority of our school field trips in the 1970's and 1980's were to DC (National Zoo, Smithsonian, National Art Gallery, Kennedy Center etc..)
There are Metro stations in Maryland as well. If you stay in Maryland while visiting Washington DC you are also near Annapolis and Baltimore (if you want to visit those cities). If you are visiting for a week you are also not far from Anteitam, Harper's Ferry and Gettysburg if you have a car.

Mr Bazza & Mrs Bazza , You mentioned flying into the metropolitan area flying into DCA & IAD but as an alternative how far is BWI and would u recommend using it ? Lots of good hacks . Christy 🇮🇪/🇵🇹 👍
We visited dc in April whilst staying in NYC We planned to visit some of the museums but like you said you needed a ticket which we didn’t know about 🙁 We did get to see a black hawk fly over near the White House (which is very small) and we saw the doomsday plane take off
it's even cheaper to stay in Maryland my friend. I live in College Park. Lots of hotels that I can guarantee you are cheaper than Arlington and Alexandria and richville Virginia.
I have never been to DC but like your approach and tips& tricks. Now I have to go!
It is a great city to visit

I thoroughly enjoyed that! I visited there in the late 90s when I was a teenager. My favorite place, just for relaxing, was the little pond or lake near the Jefferson Memorial, and my favorite museums were the Holocaust Museum and the National Archives, even as a teenager.
I think everyone should have to visit the Holocaust Museum, very moving !
The Elephant and Castle ha ha that’s in London I wonder if the proprietor is from there!
We did not stay to ask :-)
I’ve only been once,but loved it.Got the hop on hop off bus.So many great things to see.The White House was smaller than I expected.Thanks for sharing .
We did that bus many years ago
Great video. Looks a fascinating place to visit.
Thank you
Everyone you mentioned Dulles airport I was expecting the Dallas theme tune coming on.
Oh there is an idea :-)

That's a fair chunk of visits in such a short time
@@ThemeParkBazza we only had a few hours and we definitely made the most of it x

I am enjoying seeing how it is now very cool!
Maxines Mum used to stop and read everything. We would get through half a museum a day lol
Enjoyed seeing Washington. Thank
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks Baz, my favorite City too, become expensive from the UK now.
We do love it

The city is wonderful isn’t it
@@ThemeParkBazza We were absolutely blown away by it. Hope I go back one day. You are up early!
It’s 10am in the UK
@@ThemeParkBazza Oh you are over here. Thought you were in Florida and up at 5! 🤭
Good video thank u seems funny hearing u say Mall the anerican way i think lol
20 years does make an impact

Yes plenty to so in that area
Well done. Everyone should, time permitting, visit the Round Robin Bar at the Willard Hotel. The history oozes there!
Ohhh, next time
Fun fact, the Declaration of Independence was based on the declaration of Arbroath . Note the Scottish signatures on the document.
I did not know thst fact
great vid guys! BTS. Where did you buy those blue sunglasses, please?

BWI works, it is a 40 minute drive or 50 mins on the train so not a near as where we were
Is Chloe a Doctor. Lovely to see her on your vlog!
No , she works as an admin in a MRI centre
We visited dc in April whilst staying in NYC

Very cool
Monument. Washington MONUMENT. The Lincoln Memorial but The Washington Monument. 😛
You are correct
When are you buying that diamond for Max.
When I have enough money :-)
it's even cheaper to stay in Maryland my friend. I live in College Park. Lots of hotels that I can guarantee you are cheaper than Arlington and Alexandria and richville Virginia.
Good point
Definitely feeling old when you remember Ronald Reagan as President
I am old lol
I am really old, I remember President Eisenhower.
