I'll try to plan trip to take LO soon. </p> <p>I missed the 7mo part.... Yeah, I would just go to something that's appealing to you. The aquarium in Baltimore is cool enough, but it's expensive. I amend my recs to say either go to Annapolis or stay in DC... If you want an actual establishment a little more geared to your LO, the zoo is free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dcmdva-bees-overnight-trip-suggestions#post-990382 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 13:01:30 +0000 Ra 990382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baltimore also has the science center, port discovery, and the zoo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dcmdva-bees-overnight-trip-suggestions#post-990376 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 12:59:47 +0000 Lozza 990376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: My parents took my son to the Children's Museum at National Harbor last week and had a great time. He's almost 2.5 though... I don't think it would be worth it for a 7 month old...</p> <p>I'd probably vote Annapolis- it's a cute, walkable town, and you could also easily head over to one of the islands (Kent, St. Michael's) and walk around there too. </p> <p>There's also Harper's Ferry- I've never been, but I've heard it's fun and there's stuff to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dcmdva-bees-overnight-trip-suggestions#post-990344 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 12:49:05 +0000 littlek 990344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Annapolis? Colonial Williamsburg? Shenandoah Valley and visit wineries. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dcmdva-bees-overnight-trip-suggestions#post-990316 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 12:40:08 +0000 Weagle 990316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>National Harbor is a nice place to stay, though I don't know if the Children's Museum is open right now. It was closed for a while, but it's been a long time since I checked the re-opening schedule and I can't remember. The only bad thing about National Harbor is the lack of public transportation. If you wanted to spend time on the mall and in museums (which you could for days), I would stay somewhere on the metro lines. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/dcmdva-bees-overnight-trip-suggestions#post-990292 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 12:33:11 +0000 butterbean 990292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HI!! I was wondering if you had any family-friendly spots to check out (and even spend the night) in the DC/MD/VA area. We live in the area and we're thinking of taking a trip somewhere with our 7 month old...</p> <p>Some initial ideas were baltimore (cuz of the aquarium) and national harbor (cuz of the children's museum)... </p>
