On Wednesday we visited the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History and the National Gallery of Art. (Unfortunately the Museum of American History is closed for a couple years). Even if you had a week to explore and appreciate all of the museums along the Mall, it still would not be enough. The highlight of the Natural History Museum for me was the Hope Diamond. I could totally take that baby home!
The National Gallery of Art (technically not a Smithsonian Museum) is amazing. Lisa and I ran through that thing in about an hour and a half. That has to be some sort of record. We basically sprinted past beautiful Vermeers, Rembrandts, Monets, Reubens, Cezannes, and a stunning Da Vinci. It was kind of a painful experience!
