Yes, it's the vacation season and I have 4 weeks to kill...just so you know and I'll be going on another in a few months too.

p.s. I learned a lot about George Washington during my visit to Mount Vernon. I didn't know that 30% of the estate is still owned by decendents of his slaves.

DC is an awesome place to vacation and see this country's heritage. That is an interesting fact.

As a kid here I went to all the museums, landmarks etc, but you see things as a kid, if you know what I mean. Since coming back to the area a few years ago, I really haven't gone to as many as I would like.

Just out of curiosity, did you make it to either Ft. McHenry, or the Air and Space museum. Those are 2 of my favorites.

I wanted to go the Air and Space museums but my girl said it's not worth going because it doesn't have much to see and Seattle's The Museum of Flight is comparable so I went to the Capital Building instead. I'll be going back there in Octobar for my boy's wedding so I saved some time for other sites then when it's not 100 degrees outside. I done burned up out there.

I've never heard anyone say the Air and Space Museum doesn't have much to see. That's a first. The place is awesome. You'll have to hit it up next time you find yourself in the DC area.

Damn, I've been lied to by her and my little brother. I'll be sure to check it out next time.

Well, it is free
It may be that Seattle's museum rivals it, simply because you have Boeing right there. For me, growing up it was an absolute must EVERY year. It does have Skylab mockup and the Soyuz/Skylab hookup display which are awesome. I looked at the Seattle link, and if I ever get there again (only been once) I will definitely go see it.

Yeah seriously. It's a must see if you ask me.

The annex is pretty cool too.

I second that, you definitely need to hit it next time.

Which one do you prefer? The one by the Mall or the one out by Dulles Airport? I think they're both great personally. Although my favorite is the Museum of Natural History

Last time I was down there I went to the annex out by Dulles. The space shuttle was insane, just to see how big that thing is was amazing.

Unfortunately I didn't. I simply didn't have enough time as I was there for only 4 days most of which was sent with family and friends and sightseeing.
