Things to do in Georgetown or DC

---

We're very much looking forward to welcoming many of you at Georgetown this week. The beautiful weather of the past two weeks has turned cooler and the forecast is for rain on Tuesday. Bring an umbrella if at all possible. Wednesday through Friday will be warmer and partly cloudy with a chance of scattered thunderstorms. Hopefully, we'll get more sun and less rain.

If you get into town early on Tuesday, here are a few things to do in Georgetown or DC weather permitting:

• Explore the fine architecture throughout Georgetown
• Venture down to Wisconsin & M to shop along either street
• Head to the C&O canal for a long walk
• Head to the city's monumental core
• Visit Dumbarton Oaks or the Old Stone House in Georgetown

For dinner on your own on Tuesday:

• There are over 100 restaurants and bars in Georgetown and hundreds more in Washington.
