So - I'm headed to Washington for a week visiting my sister -
I wanted to see the Peacock Room, but it closed last month for renovations until next year.
So - what should I check out at the Smithsonian?

2. Check out their site: http://www.si.edu/Events
We loved the Hirshhorn.
If I were going, I would visit the American Indian Museum. It wasn't open the last time we were in DC. |
