Hi. I'm traveling to Wash DC with my 12 year old son to be a tourist.

I was thinking that I'd stay someone outside of the city (cheaper?) near the metro and travel in each day to see the sights.

I'm raw 5 months now, though I will eat cooked vegan when that's the best option.

So my questions are:

1. Where should I stay? Is it near a Whole Foods or a great raw restaurant where I can eat?

2. What restaurants should I try out? I can drive around for dinner. Even better if I can eat in the city, walking or metro from the tourist sites.

Thanks!
