Washington DC Activities

The Kennedy Center

The John F. Kennedy Center is the  performing arts center of Washington DC near the  the Watergate complex which opened on September 8, 1971. It produces and presents theater, dance, ballet, orchestral, chamber, jazz, popular, and folk music, in addition to multi-media performances for all ages.

To see a great show at the best price available, which is zip-zilch-nada, check out the shows at The Kennedy Center on Mondays to Fridays at 6pm.

On Saturday, I went to see “Les Miserables” and it was absolutely amazing! The play will be there until the end of October and tickets are still available.

The Kennedy Center is  located at 2700 F Street, NW and closest to the Foggy Bottom-GWU metro stop (blue line). Call 202-467-4600 for more info. Also, be sure to take a look at the map of The Kennedy Center before you arrive.

If you want to see something else at another time, they also offer Pay-What-You-Can tickets, also for the National Symphony Orchestra.

Georgetown By Bus

Trying to get to Georgetown from the American Guest House (Kalorama) and don’t want to spend a lot on taxi fares or perhaps just want to enjoy the area as a local?  Unfortunately there are no metro/subway stations in Georgetown, but there are plenty of buses and taxis.  So, if you are a guest at American Guest House Bed and Breakfast and are wondering how to get to Georgetown, here are some tips:

You can either of course walk all the way thru (about 25 minutes walk) or take bus 42/43 a few feet from our front door to DuPont Circle or take a leisure walk down to Dupont circle and catch  the Circulator (red bus) by the Heurich house  (beautiful Victorian House turned Museum) and go directly to the heart of Georgetown.

Fares: regular fare is  $1.00, senior fare $0.50 and you can pay by cash or with a Smart trip.

The DC Circulator has more than 1 line, it’s  all about downtown Washington, DC.  It has five routes  that links cultural, entertainment and business destinations within the city’s central core!

Enjoy your ride! Jonathan
