So time is starting to run out and it’s time for another update on my project.
I have been working on putting together my itinerary plans in an easy to understand way. For my DC guide, I have decided to include a map to help outline the route that the plan follows.
The plan so far for DC is:
- Start the day at the white house, bright and early around 8:30 am
- Walk from the white house towards the Washington Monument
- After reaching the washington monument, turn in the direction of the WWII memorial
- Follow the length of the reflecting pool towards the Lincoln Memorial
- Enjoy a walk towards the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial
- Visit the Franklin D Roosevelt Memorial
- Walk to the Thomas Jefferson Memorial
- Walk or take a bus or a taxi (depending on how you’re feeling) back to the national mall
- Find lunch at a food truck along the national mall or in a food court at on of the many museums around
- Speaking of Museums, pick one or two to visit – our recommendations are National Museum of American History, National Museum of Natural History and National Air and Space Museum
- Walk down to the Capitol building – we highly recommend reserving a free tour ahead of time for the latest tour of the afternoon – don’t forget to arrive early!
- If you still have some energy left, take a walk through the US botanic garden
- Lastly, if time allows, a trip to Arlington cemetery will probably require a bus or taxi ride – but if you’re up for it, you’ve ticked almost everything off the list of things to do in DC!
So there you have it – an action packed exhausting itinerary for if you only have one day to spend in DC!
My main concern is addressing how to make this information look good, because although the concepts were good in my head – I need to find a way to make the design look good. Because I’m not an artist or designer, I think this will be my main issue to work on going forward.
