How to See Washington DC: Find Memorials, Monuments and Historical Attractions Using the Metro
Oh where to start! This was such a fun trip. Washington DC is filled with history. Get a good pair of walking shoes because you will need them to see all of the incredible sights in Washington D.C. This city is so fun to visit. I would recommend using the Metrorail as parking is extremely limited. We stayed in Woodley Park and took the Metro everywhere with the exception of our side trips to Virginia and Maryland.

The City of Fountains: A Day Trip to Tivoli Italy
If you need a break from all of the tourists in Rome the village of Tivoli is a short train ride and feels like a world away. As a side trip from Rome we took the local train to Tivoli. It so happened there was a metro strike the morning we planned on heading to Tivoli. The strike was for four hours and we learned strikes in Rome are planned ahead of time. However, we were not aware of this particular strike. Like most mornings we walked to the metro to find we could not take the metro or the bus to Tiburtini like we had planned.
