Done Boston, New York & Washington, what next?

I've just finished a summer at camp, which was wonderful, and have spent a few days in Boston and New York. I'm about to spend 3 days in Washington DC ending on the 16th August, but I don't know what to do next!

I have a budget of $70 a day and there are two of us. We're flying back on 22nd August. No car, all public transport. Any suggestions would be welcome! Please help!

    How about driving down to Williamsburg to see some old historic areas. Plus they have a Busch Gardens theme park there.

    My suggestion too, and take a coach trip to Niagara Falls for the day.

    That sounds pretty good as long as the train isn't crazy expensive! Is that Amtrak? Thanks for all the suggestions!
