“Dear PoPville,

My husbands family is visiting in a few weeks and we’re looking for ideas for activities and restaurants. In total, we’ll have 8 adults and 1 1.5 yr old. Any recommendations?”

Some early recs:

“Planet word, monuments at night, show at arena stage or Kennedy center (take advantage of under 30 programs if applicable)”

“The White House, Pie Shop, Julia’s Empenadas”

“On my B list after the Mall, zoo and museums, is Hillwood if you have people interested in decorative arts. Another is Gunston Hall, George Mason’s estate. Restored by Colonial Dames, good visitor center.”
