Today we went to the National Mall to visit the Smithsonian's Natural History Museum.

We went mainly to see a photo exhibit there highlighting Nature's Best Photography International Awards. The photos were stunning. Everyone's favorite photo was of a Bald Eagle:

The photos above were from the youth division. They were shot by boys and girls under the age of 18. Pretty amazing.
Max and Myles really enjoyed the fossils and Birds of D.C. displays:

We decided to go see the IMAX 3D movie, Sharks. It was the first 3D movie the boys had seen, and they really got into the experience:
