Subject: Re: [Wikimania-l] Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center (Air & Space Museum)
I'm probably going to be going to Udvar-Hazy around midday on Sunday (after the
comcom meeting on Sunday morning, before I fly out fairly early on Monday), returning to
Washington when it closes at ~6.30pm. If anyone else is interested in going at these
times, let me know.
It looks like the easiest way to get there via public transport is the Metrobus to Dulles
(
- 5A, from L'enfant Plaza to Dulles), and then there's
a Loudon bus from Dulles to the Air and Space museum (route 83,
)
- and back the same way.
Thanks,
Mike

that they dont have a facility to leave luggage.
there are at least two other people who want to go to the Air & Space Museum near the
airport and I also have a flight on Monday evening and want to take my stuff to the
airport, leave it somewhere there, see the museum, come back in the afternoon and check
the luggage in.
