And the you'll-do-fine-sticking-around-the-Mall idea, too. I strongly suggest going at night - it's less crowded and very pretty. If you wander around a bit on the other side of the street (White House side), you'll run into some other interesting stuff, too. We liked finding the old port gates (?) and such. But, I wouldn't recommend wandering TOO far off the main path, particularly at night... :)
Georgetown was pretty cool, if you can get there (I didn't pay much attention to where/how far things were, honestly). The zoo is great and free, too.
