So, okay, I am spending this weekend in Boston and then heading off to Washington DC for a few days, and I pretty much have no idea what I want to do while I am in either place!

Anyone got any suggestions for me? I like things like museums and pretty areas to wander around and cultural landmarks and such, also things that are accessible by public transport and do not require really huge amounts of walking.

Yeah, in DC, the Smithsonian is along a long strip of green called the National Mall - lots and lots of huge museums, all along side each other (I think admission might be free but I can't swear). At one end of the green is the Washington Monument, and on the other end is Congress (which is open to the public for tours). The Washington Monument is bordered on the other side by a large pool - the reflecting pool - and on the other side of that is the Lincoln Memorial. So, you could spend your entire vacation just in that area without ever taking public transportation. Not that there isn't more to do - just that you could.
