We went to both Smithsonian Air and Space museums, in Virginia
and in Washington DC.
The Virginia one was packed with aircraft, warehouse style, including some big jets.
As expected, Zeke was a big fan of the helicopters.
We liked the present-day military jets too.
On the mall, the museum had an interactive kids exhibit. Zeke had a great time here, and there were a couple of stations we had to literally drag him away from. One of the stations we tried was a scale that told us our family of (almost) 4 weighs 408 lbs on Earth and 1022 lbs on Jupiter.
Even though Zeke loves planes, the museum scene wasn't really his favorite. Not enough action, I think. But he did like the passenger jet area and the model aircraft.
We also learned through our museum-going that when Zeke is bored he is a lot more willing to take an afternoon nap. So we carried a sleeping Zeke around in both locations and on the mall. Cute, but heavy!
