The Symposium will be held at the Key Bridge Marriott Hotel in Arlington,
Virginia, which is located across the Potomac river from beautiful
Georgetown in Washington, D.C. The hotel has a scenic view of Washington
and the Potomac, and is within a very short walking distance to Rosslyn
Metro Station. Metro provides an inexpensive, safe, and pleasant access
in a few minutes to Washington's National Airport and to the Washington Mall
where the White House, the U.S. Capitol, the National Air and Space Museum,
the Smithonian Institution, the Vietnam Memorial, and many other national
monuments are located. Georgetown is a lively and beautiful area with a
great variety of shops, restaurants and night entertainment.
