Ricardo,
in response to your question on getting off CCT at Pennsylvania
Ave..
Glad to hear you're enjoying the CCT. When I go the trail (and I used
to go to Waterside Mall which is just down 4th St from Air & Space), I
would stay on the trail to the end. This was my route:
1. Go to end of CCT onto K St. (under the Freeway).
2. Take K Street, past a big parking lot & just before the buildings on the
right (i think it's a hotel)
3. Right turn before the hotels (sort of a building driveway), and go to
the water.
Then a left turn along the harbor waterfront (there are signs that say
walk your bike, but nobody does).
4. At the end, take a little path (mostly straight, a bit to the right) and that
brings you
to the Thompson's boathouse parking lot; takes you to the light at Virginia
Ave and Rock Creek park Drive (after it's no longer Rock Creek Park)
5. Then you can either go through town up Virginia, or a longer but much
nicer route is to go past Kennedy Center to lincoln. I used to go around
the Tidal Basin & you could go up 15th St to the independence ave the
Mall to get to Air & Space.
I'm at 13th & Penn now, so I'm cutting down the reflecting pool to
Constitution.
