Depending on how long you'll be there, Dad says driving down to the Mall at night is fine because there's WAY less traffic. We parked right across the street from the WWII Memorial last summer, and it's not because that was our only option.
It's kind of a long drive to VA Beach, but if you wind up going there on your way back home or something, Colonial Williamsburg is on the way from DC to VA Beach. The two are definitely too much for a day trip, though.
Bay Bridge/Tunnel EVIL, but that's from the POV of one person who hates bridges traveling with someone who's deathly afraid of tunnels.
And I think (ironically) there's a listening section on the Tests from Hell about the spy museum. It sounds pretty spiffy, if it's the same one.
