Do Tow-Mater and Lightning McQueen still make daily appearances in DCA? We missed them last september and my six year old would LOVE to see them!

Yes, instead of driving out the Amphitheater a few times a day, they now are permanently parked across the path from Taste Pilots Grill, and are available for photos from 9:30 AM to park closing.

so glad to hear this! My son is addicted to cars. Last year we saw them in the block party, but he was upset that he couldn't be closer to them.

Do you get to touch them?

You bet! We have pictures from our last trip of our almost 2 y.o. nephew sitting on Lightning and giving them both big hugs. They basically just stand there for photo ops and move their eyes back and forth while "vroooming." Huge hit with the kids.

Does anyone know if this is going on through the rest of the year? Thank you!

We saw them a few times the last trip and the trip last Christmas. We seem to usually hit it good, as there was rarely a line longer than 5 minutes.
