| How about the National Geographic museum? I take the kids to all of they're exhibits, which are usually really good. It's on Global Food now, and you can get a coupon on the bottom of a Whole Foods receipt. |

| National museum of medicine at Walter Reed in Silver Spring. Lots of gnarly stuff there that a teenage boy, at least, would like. |

Is this still at the Walter Reed site or did it move along with everything else? |
