Day 3
On your third day, take time to enjoy the waterfront and shopping available in Georgetown. While there, satisfy your sweet tooth at Georgetown Cupcake , made popular by the TLC show D.C. Cupcakes or try locally- acclaimed Baked and Wired . If your crew is more into museums than shopping, definitely put the International Spy Museum on your list. This local favorite for kids includes an interactive tour that sends you on your own undercover mission. Tickets are $24.95 for adults and $14.95 for youth (7-12); children under 6 are free. The Holocaust Museum narrates the story of the Holocaust through artifacts, photographs and film. The experience is incredibly moving, though best reserved for older kids who will grasp the historical significance. Tickets are free but must be reserved online or picked up same-day at the museum for timed entry. To close out the evening, catch a show at the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts , which frequently hosts off-Broadway performances. For history buffs, Ford’s Theatre , the site of President Lincoln’s assassination, features a variety of live performances in addition to tours of the historic space.
