Air and Space Museum

I didn't even know that there was another National Air and Space Museum other than the one on the Mall. Turns out there is an "overflow" museum out near Dulles (which happens to be right close to us). Granted, I don't get all excited about planes and flying exhibits (part of the downside of being married to a pilot who is over exuberant about such things), but this was a REALLY cool museum! I have to say that I was totally blown away by the space shuttle. That thing is SO MUCH BIGGER than I thought that it was. The entire space exhibit was really cool, and even the boys were into it. 

Just another perk about living here in D.C.......
