Lived there for many years. It is nothing like NYC, so comparissons don't really work. Here is my short list of fun things/places:
1) Thur nite at St Ex 14th/R. Go downstairs. The DJ's are all over the map. Garage, electronica, mashups, anything goes.
2.) Have drinks on the patio at the Fox and Hounds 17th/Q. Clearly a warm weather diversion, but just people watching Chanel17 is worth the wait.
3.) Take a sketch pad to the Zoo. Its free. For that matter all of the big art galleries on the mall are free.
4.) Find a pick-up soccer, or ultimate game.
5.) Go to Gravelly point and watch the planes take off right over your head. I don't think Homeland Security has shut it down yet.
6.) Get creeped out at the Natuional Museum of Health and Medicine http://www.roadsideamerica.com/a…
7.) Play chess in DuPont Circle. Catch one while your there with a local bike courier.
8.) Have a soul food breakfast at the Florida Ave Grill 1100 FL
9.) Mt. Bike through Rock Creek park. Or road bike it on weekends when they close many of the roads to cars.I could go on, but it's making me homesick.
