Night Tour of Washington DC
by SUSAMY
This tour is fabulous, and it's at night. It combines a number of stops and drive-by's that show you all of the highlights of DC. You all pack into a big tour bus and go around town. Some places on this tour were: stopping at the Lincoln Memorial and Jefferson Memorial, seeing JFK's bust in the Kennedy Center, stopping at the Iwogima Memorial, Vietnam Veteran's Memorial, Korean War Memorial, and driving by the Watergate Hotel, US Naval Observatory. GREAT tour. These places are really great to see at night. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Watergate by accident
by mht_in_la
I was taking an early morning walk along Virginia Ave to see C&O Canal. Then I saw this round building with a sign saying "Watergate Hotel". Wow, is this the famous Watergate? I'm not familiar with the Watergate event. It was before my time. I think Nixon went down for it and that's about it. I snatched the photo anyway. Then a couple of weeks after I returned from my trip, I saw the building again in the movie "Fahrenheit 911".

Need cheap hotel near Watergate Hotel
by Meredi
Hi everyone,
I'm going to a conference held at Watergate Hotel but I'm a student and can't afford their rates. Does anyone know of any reasonably priced hotels within walking distance? (Less than $80/night preferred.)
Thanks!

I just booked the Wyndham City Center for $69/night. You need to call them though. Ask for their special "Web Rate". It may only apply to weekends but I'm not sure.
