Travel links round-up

I’ve been accumulating links for the past two weeks. Here’s a round-up from the DC media of interesting — and easy on the wallet– things to do this summer.

  • Washington Post: Weekend trip to Lynchburg. The Post profiles this quirky Virginia town as a “perfect place to while away a long weekend.” There’s even the “hipster” Craddock Terry Hotel, which is housed in a converted shoe factory and contains a brewery. I’m sold.
  • Washington.org: 100 free things in DC — Like many of these “top 100″ or “50 best” lists, this one contains many obvious suggestions. (really, the Smithsonian is free?) However, I really enjoyed the first section, which detailed how to obtain free or heavily discounted tickets to cultural events.
  • DCist.com: Outdoor movies — While Screen on the Green may be history, the DC legacy of outdoor movies lives on. One highlight is the NoMa (North of Massachusetts Ave.) showing of music documentaries. Check out it’s lineup here.
