Great day out for all the family. The exhibits are lovely and natural and there are so many cool animals to see. Watch out for the Orangutans overhead and see how quickly a cheetah or lions could finish you off for dinner (1 hour, oh dear)!

This is heaven! I can't believe I touched the MOON! There is a bit here (not at all like cheese) along with some amazing historic flying machines like the Wright brothers' original plane!

This park by the White House is quite fun! You're by the National Mall, you can see the White House and there are some statues etc around as well. Our favourite lunch spot.

The highlight of a trip here is the building itself, large, showy and beautiful. You can also learn about the symbolism of architecture in DC (washington monument anyone...?) if you can stop gawping long enough.

I can see why this is one of the most popular modern art museums in the country! Great collection and don't forget to also go and visit the sculpture garden, there are some amazing pieces!
