Free Afternoon
On Tuesday, June 14 the program ends mid-day, allowing attendees a free afternoon!
Some ideas for how to spend your afternoon:
- AAPM will arrange for a bus ($15 ticket) to make a round trip to the Smithsonian National Air & Space Udvar-Hazy Center on Tuesday afternoon. The bus will pick up at the hotel after lunch at 1:15 and will depart the museum parking lot promptly at 4:15pm. There is no admittance fee to the museum, which has thousands of aviation and space artifacts on display in a massive hangar. Visit the IMAX theater, checkout a ride simulator or take a docent tour! This is not the Air & Space museum in Washington, DC but the sister location near Chantilly, Virginia.
- Read a book by the hotel pool.
- Take a cab to the Vienna Metro which is the end/beginning of the Orange Line, Washington Metro. The orange line will take you directly to the Smithsonian stop in Washington, DC.
