DC same general thing...even adults....b/c they have to adjust for their kids, not everyone has them, but many people have kids.....i do, and we went to the school, took her shopping for the supplies, as my mother and grandparents had taken Dave and I......so sept 11 might have a lull there...on travel and tourism..

Washington, D.C. experiences peak tourism during spring and summer. Specifically, late March through June is when the city is most crowded, due to the National Cherry Blossom Festival in late March to early April and school trips. Summer, from June to August, is also a popular time, with school vacations and events like the Smithsonian Folklife Festival.
