Afterwards, I'm heading over to the museum's Butterfly Pavilion.

I also want to go by the Botanical Gardens while we're there in DC and, of course, the Capitol and the Library of Congress.

I also have not yet seen the new WWII Memorial and JW has never seen Maya Lin's Vietnam Memorial, so I will want to revisit that with him. Personally I don't know of anyone who is honored there, but it's such incredibly powerful symbolic architecture.
