November weather, mid to upper 40s, lower 50s during the day, lower 40s to upper 30s at night. But be prepared for anything, as it's been a pretty warm autumn thus far...until this week of course.
Cool sights? National Building Museum is underrated. But, do some research...the Washington Post has a few sections devoted to sights around town. Definitely check out the Changing of the Guard at Arlington Cemetary.
Well, Snyder runs the Redskins stores in town, and for some ungodly reason, there isn't one in DC. Here's a list of the stores around town (http://store.redskins.com/content.asp?id=2).
There are tons of great places to eat in and around town. Areas to check out dining and nightlife are Georgetown, Adams Morgan, Capitol Hill, Gallery Place/Chinatown, Ballston/Clarendon, and Bethesda. Again, the Washington Post has a huge listing of restaurants and bars/clubs. I highly recommend the Brickskeller in Adams Morgan/Dupont Circle or RFD in if you're into beer. The Brickskeller has over 1000 beers to order at a time, and RFD has 40+ on tap, plus a large bottle collection.
If anything, try to stay near a Metro stop, and use it. You can get $5 all day passes, which is a hell of a lot cheaper than trying to use a rental car and park, or using taxis. And if you're flying into National Airport, you can use the Metro to get from there to your hotel.
Again, use the Metro to get to the game. It's less than a mile from the Morgan Blvd Metro station. It's $35 to park at the stadium. And there are plenty of Warpathers that have tailgates you can crash.
