Planning to visit next weekend, will the museums be open? Trolley?

And how is the Dupont area of DC as a starting point?

Did you seriously type "gobermint"?

Smithsonian museums are all closed. Private museums are open.

Thanks for the info.we looking forward to the weekend. It has been way too long since our last visit. Is the city cultural diverse like NYC? Resturaunts,etc?

And I did type gobermint in humor.

Dupont is a great starting location, as there are several small museums around there that are all open, and lots of great restaurants from many cuisines. It's not NYC (nothing is), but very enjoyable.
