The hottest museum ticket in town is for the Bureau of Printing and Engraving. They are free but you have to get there before 8am to stand in line for tickets. I left early and got in line and got tickets for everyone for the afternoon. I stopped by the garage where Watergate was uncovered and even stood in the parking spot where it all went down. I venture to guess this is not a huge tourist draw...
Mommy had a lunch with some work friends and I met up with you ar the Smithsonian on American History. We saw the flag that inspired our national anthem, Julia Child's kitchen, the Greensboro lunch counter, 1st lady ball gowns and so much more. It was an amazing place!! We walked through the mall (caught Daddy up on the sights) on our way to Bureau of Printing. We couldn't take pictures inside, but saw all the money being printed, the new 100 bills coming this November and learned how paper becomes money. It was worth the effort to get the tickets!
You went swimming with Grandma at the hotel pool while Mommy and Daddy did a walking tour of Georgetown. We ended at the stairs from the movie the Exorcist.
