I'd do either Gettysburg or the Holocaust Museum.

Jerry, they have a bond car exhibition on at the spy museum. I really had to stop that being a fun dad side trip, because its an extra purchase and i am the only person in my family who will enjoy that.

The excellent Postal Museum, while we still have a postal service?

Stay in DC. Go to Shaw. Drink at a lovely black owned wine shop, grab award winning Ethiopian food after, see the Holocaust museum before the deniers shutter it.

Natural History Museum and American History Museum are side by side. And they’re on the Mall if kids need time to run around.
Bureau of Engraving and Printing to watch money being made.
National Cathedral because Darth Vader is there.

Natural History is a fave. No air and space? It’s not as good as the one out by Dulles but it’s pretty cool

sfdegraff.bsky.social•1 day ago

Air and space was mentioned in the original post as one they already had tickets for.

Thanks my bad :)

Not a problem. A lot of people were recommending the Air and Space out at Dulles(?) but I’ve never been there.

samoart.bsky.social•4 hours ago

its great mostly because its so huge and they have shuttles and airplanes it's like a giant cool hangar

Free but $ parking per car

Oh you can't go wrong in either case

My kid really loves the spy museum… I was wowed by the Library of Congress building…

drdecaluwe.bsky.social•2 days ago

Spy museum is great.

Which air & space are you going to? The one out near Dulles (Udvar--Hazy) is great, fwiw.

I would do a battlefield or somesuch. Gettysburg, Harpers Ferry, Antietam--all good.

852dude.bsky.social•2 days ago

We're doing a day trip to Fredericksburg so another battlefield is definitely happening. I just know Gburg really well.

852dude.bsky.social•2 days ago

And the one in DC. so we can go get lunch and then wander around looking at monuments (or another museum) in the afternoon.

tomatoburger.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's unreal how good Udvar-Hazy is.

Nah dawg, go to Izakaya Seki at 12 and V near the 9:30 Club and absolutely wreck yourself on top shelf sushi. Also Native American History Museum is rad too.
