Cherry Blossoms Cruise
Departs 7:00 AM   Returns 11:00 PM
Enjoy yourself on an unparalleled view of our Nation’s Majestic Monuments during the most beautiful time of the year with the Cherry Blossoms in bloom.   Lunch will be your choice of a variety of entrees and desserts.  After the 2 ½ hour cruise we will visit a few of the National Monuments before returning home.  No breakfast stop will be made, so eat before you arrive at the bus or pack something to eat on the way.  This is an extremely popular trip and sells out fast!

McDonnell Space Hangar, immersive flight simulators, the Airbus IMAX Theater and the Donald D. Engen Observation Tower, which offers views of the Washington Dulles International Airport runways.  The aircraft and spacecraft are displayed in huge open hangars on the main floor, where visitors can walk among them, and on two levels suspended from the ceiling.  A series of skywalks bring visitors nose-to-nose with the vehicles suspended from the ceiling, hung to replicate their flight maneuvers.  Enjoy the current show at the Airbus IMAX Theatre.
