The District of Columbia (Washington DC)


Welcome to the District of Columbia, Washington DC, section of Business Travel Fun. I Travel to Washington, DC on Business every now and then and I have been doing so for about 18 years. I try to stay in Crystal City if I can help it, and depending on the nature of my Business, I usually don't even bother with a rental car. Parking is very expensive, not to mention the traffic is horrendous. If I have a Business meeting or a convention to attend, and it is within a few blocks of a Metro Station, then I will stay in Crystal City and take the Metro. It is very cheap and convenient. The only downside is that the last trains run about 12:15 AM to 12:30 AM depending on the Metro Station you are using, so if you are out late, you can find yourself needing a taxi back which can be expensive.
