                <description><![CDATA[It is a National Park, and adjunct to the Kennedy Center (similar to Prince Albert Hall). It is a 'no frills' (sit on the grass - and bring a blanket and your picnic dinner) park, which has various artists (Janice Ian, Joan Baez, The Kingston Trio, others) on offer during the summer months.  Conveniently located to The Wolf Trap Motel (in Vienna, Va - the subject of another posting), as well as other motels in the area. <br><br>The national parks are a great deal - as are the museums. Unlike Europe - most do not charge an admission fee.. or at most it's nominal.  A good deal for 'over 62'ers' is a 'golden age passport'.  For a 'one time' fee of $10, it grants lifetime admission to all national park facilities for free to citizens and legal residents - along with companions, friends, etc. Now you can't beat that in europe!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[A great little jazz club named after a congressional resolution passed in 1987. $10 cover but it's BYO with a $3 corkage charge and plenty of space to hang out. And being on 14th street, if it's not your cup of tea there are plenty of other places to hang out like Bar Pilar, BlackCat and others.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[It gives you a feel of what Washington was like back in the golden jazz era of the 1950s and 1960s. Despite the fact that Georgetown has grown wealthy and white around it, the clientele is 90% black Washington and they know their music. You sit at a table and eat dinner by candlelight while the band plays. It’s an unforgettable night out.]]></description>
