#87 – Watch the Fireworks on the 4th of July

There are several spots in Arlington where you can see the fireworks on the National Mall. Lady Byrd Johnson Park has a great view across the water although traffic can be bad and parking along the GW Parkway is no longer permitted.  Long Bridge Park has been a frequent location for family friendly Fourth of July celebrations in the past but hasn’t had a formal celebration in recent years. The Marine Corps Memorial site and the field in front of the Netherlands Carillon is also a great place to take a picnic and stay for the firerowrks.  Stay Arlington offers these suggestions for the best places to watch the fireworks in Arlington.   What are your favorite spots to watch the 4th of July fireworks?
