Going to DC with a friend for a couple days and am wondering if Hexbear has some ideas on what to do. We already have a list of the 4 (maybe 5) museums we're going to, so probably don't need any suggestions there. (Though feel free if somewhere was super cool to you.) Preferably things close to metro and/or downtown.

Museums.

Seriously one of the only good things about that city is it's got a shit ton of really good museums and most of them are free.

My knowledge is 30 years out of date, but the zoo and aquarium were fucking badass when I visited them.

There used to be a piranha exhibit that allowed you to stick your fingers in to see that they're scavengers and not interested in your living hands, so I put my whole arm in ๐Ÿ˜‚

The aquarium is gone. The good one is in Baltimore
