We check in Christmas Day in Williamsburg for a week. At some point we may drive back to Charlottesville and visit Monticello. We are definitely taking a day and going to DC.
My question is about DC. Due to it being cold, I don't want to do a "ton" of walking outside. The original plan was to hit the National Archives and the Air & Space museum since they are both on the same metro line and there is a stop close to each one. Is it possible to fit in a tour of the Capitol on the same day? Or would we be happier going to Chantilly to the Air & Space museum there to see the shuttle?
Also, what is there around Williamsburg that wouldn't be on a top 5 list? I've already walked all of Colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown settlement & a few other things. Looking for something that "locals" would recommend.
