So. Bumpkin travels, ahoy.

So, it's time for my annual, 'Making Plans for my Vacation; Har Har'. So far, I've found this: http://www.fairfaxvahotel.com/special-pkg/smithsonian-vacation-pkg.aspx - - and called them, and apparently, their website lies, as they do NOT include passes to the bus and/or the DC Metro. Hmm. It's twenty miles away from the museums, but it seems the closer you get, the more it costs. Natch. The pricing seems right, as do the separate expenses for the bus and Metro - this could actually be do-able.

Can you imagine...five days loose in the Smithsonian? I dream, I dream.

There's even a lecture on Mars' polar caps on the 23rd - and it's free!

Not to mention this: http://nationalzoo.si.edu/

I work so damned hard, I don't mind saying I really want to do this..
