I am indeed in Philly; however, this is a family trip, and my parents reside in Michigan, so they'll be flying - we'll be meeting up in the city together and going our separate ways. So the airport does factor into the equation, though I actually haven't seen it come up in this thread. I'm sure either a cab or the metro goes to downtown DC, though, so that part doesn't worry me too much.
