I'd love to visit D.C. again. I was so moved by so much of it.
I actually saw the President arrive on the South Lawn of the White House via helicopter. It was Dubya's daddy Bush, so not the best (nor now the worst) of presidents to see, but it was still really cool.
I never did tour the White House though. I'd love to go back.
While it would be really cool to be there for the inauguration, I would recommend NOT going when the city is going to be ultra crowded. There's so much wonderful Americana to experience ... it would be a shame to be deterred from any of that by impossible crowds at all the shrines, museums, monuments and important sites.
