Could anyone who has been to Washington,DC help me?
We will be in Washington,DC on a Wednsday, May 2 on our way home from Disney. I was thinking of visiting Mount vernon Estates from 8:30am-10:30am then heading over to Washington,DC from 11:00am-1:30am. Does this give us enough time to sight see in the MountVernon estates and sight see some of Washington DC and get out of there before rush hour traffic. Also, whattime does rush hour traffic start in the afternoon? We are trying to get home to CT that night. Thank you for your help
I definately would do one or the other too
I also think it would be wise to pick between the two. It would be VERY hard for you to cover both of these in the course of one day.
It would take you more than a half an hour to get from MT Vernon into the city.
You are coming right at the height of school tours/etc.
I work in the House and I don't even THINK about trying to get my lunch until 1:30-2:00. You can't even move in there this time of year.
Rush hour begins more like 3:00. All the industry people/labor/service professionals all come in early and get off earlier.
If I can help with anything else. Please ask.
