Last year, I put together a set of tips for those traveling to our glorious nation's capital, which I emailed to all of the Washington REALTOR members who planned on attending. I received many grateful responses, so I thought I'd reprise that same information here, where it can live forever (and you can't delete it "on accident" from your inbox!).
TIPS FOR SURVIVING THE NAR MID-YEAR CONFERENCE:
CHECK THE WEATHER (AND PLAN FOR RAIN).

LEARN THE METRO.
For cheap, quick and easy transportation, you can't beat D.C.'s subway system, the Metro! Snatch a day pass or a week-long pass and ride the rails to your heart's content. Check out the Metro's schedules and fares.
SEE THE SIGHTS.

Take a walk through the National Mall… It's even more fun than the kind you shop in!
Even if you can't do everything, make a point of doing something. The capitol city and surrounding areas are chock-full of history. A good place to learn about the area's attractions can be found here.
"THESE BOOTS ARE MADE FOR WALKIN'."

Great tips - - don't forget to eat and hang out in the funky Adam's Morgan area. We're about 2 hours from DC . . . too far to meet halfway?
ReplyDeleteWell... I won't have a car, but I can get anywhere the Metro goes... We have a suite at the Wardman. Wanna come party?
ReplyDeleteOh, that brings back memories. I used to live in northern VA...I miss the metro and the Air & Space Museum and the downpours too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog!
CK - - so wish I could come party! But lacrosse, business travel, blah, blah, blah makes the 2 hour trip not feasible. But I know we're gonna make it happen on one coast or another! In the meantime, we have an award for you over at lipstickdaily!
