In case you find yourself needing (or even wanting) to visit the DC area again, I've got a few suggestions: 1) Take wcg up on his offer. Local knowledge trumps all. Plus, rumor has it that he's good company. 2) Fly into and out of Reagan International. Right on the Metro. (Finding el-cheapo flights might be tricky, but it might be a wash if you add in cab fare from Dulles.) 3) Fly into and out of BWI. Direct shuttle bus from the airport to the train station, then you can pick MTA or Amtrak to Union Station in DC.
I haven't tried option one yet, but I have tried the others (as well as having flown into Dulles). Unless I could expense cab fare, I probably won't do Dulles again; it's way the heck out in the middle of nowhere, without any direct connections downtown.
