Whenever folks are in Washington DC they should stop by the NATIONAL CATHEDRAL and the adjacent BISHOP'S HERB GARDEN. Peaceful and free . . . . lots of docent help within the cathedral itself. Children especially love the Children's Chapel with it's scaled-down pew and organ, and Noah's Ark theme; they also love roaming through the catecombs.
Truly a national treasure!
