Washington Dc For Families - Combine History With Fun In The Nations Capitol
Thursday, February 21st, 2008The Smithsonian museums are favorites for parents and kids of all ages (and parents love the free admission). The National Air & Space Museum (Independence Ave at 4th Street, SW) features the largest collection of air and spacecraft in the world. Favorite sights include the original Wright 1903 Flyer, the Spirit of St. Louis, the Apollo 11 command module, and a lunar rock sample that visitors can touch. The IMAX theater and planetarium shows rival any blockbuster movie (most shows have a per person admission charge).
