our 10th anniversary
Last year, we went to Disney World for vacation. This year we need something more affordable, so we are going to Washington, D.C.!!!!
Alan has been after me to write a post about how to save money and hassle on a D.C. vacation for a while now because it’s something we loved. When we lived in the D.C. area, we had so much fun taking our friends and family around to see the monuments and Smithsonian museums.
So I finally got around to it. I wrote an article for Monterey Premier about Saving Money and Hassle on a Washington, D.C. vacation.
Here’s a snippet:
#8. Most importantly, buy a Metro pass, and you will be fine.
The Metro is a perfectly safe form of transportation, and it is the most affordable way to do D.C. There are even buses that run between Metro stops that you can hop on with your Metro pass.
I used to walk around D.C. with my Metro map, but now that everyone has smart phones, you can give your Google Maps app a good work-out on this trip! Which leads me to my next tip…..#9. Download the Metro app!!!……..

My husband and I have never been. Our eighth grader went last year and this year our other eighth grader will go. I admit to feeling a little jealous, There is so much I want to see there!
Someday! Someday you will!!
Awesome - I'll go read it now! I used to go often because my family lived there. Then they moved to MD. It's still a place I'd love to take my kids. I remember driving being difficult, so the Metro Pass sure comes in handy!
Oh, I didn't know you have family in MD. We enjoyed touring Maryland and Pennsylvania too. So many things to see!!
I visit DC often and it's expensive, super duper expensive. I’m definitely going back, but this time I’m hoping to save some money instead of spending all of mine. Getting a Metro Pass is a great idea!
And pack as much food as you can so you don't have to buy their over priced food!
Great tips! I love DC esp since my best friend lives there. The museums are awesome ❤
I agree! I miss it so much.
