And a follow-up question...

I asked the WMATA RideGuide what's the best way for me to get from my hotel
to the GMU Arlington campus and it said this:

   Take ORANGE LINE Towards VIENNA/FAIRFAX -GMU
   Depart:  ROSSLYN METRO STATION  At 09:05 AM
   Arrive:  BALLSTON METRO  At 09:13 AM

   Take 24M PENTAGON
   Depart:  BALLSTON METRO  At 09:50 AM
   Arrive:  WILSON BV & KENMORE ST  At 09:55 AM

   Walk 0.09 miles NW to GEORGE MASON UNIVARL
       Walk 1 block NW on N KENMORE ST.

Does that sound correct?

Also, is the 3401 North Fairfax Drive address shown here:

is that where to go once at GMU?  And then we go up to the second/third
floors?

Thanks,
--Todd

(...) No... the Virginia Square station is a better choice... when you surface (there is a bit of construction that makes you go to the S a bit I think) loop around to Fairfax and go to the right (east I think)... it's on your left immediately after (...)

A question for folks in there area... My flight is supposed to get in at 10:06pm tonight at BWI.
