With its large supply of travel, restaurant, and entertainment sites, the Internet is an extremely helpful tool for planning trips and sightseeing. In addition to "official" sites about local attractions, there are many personal pages that include recommendations of favorite eateries, lists of things to avoid, and general advice for the out-of-towner. The Washington D.C. area has, of course, attracted many such sites. Welcome to town -- enjoy your stay!
