National Museum of the Marine Corps

Yesterday we had a great opportunity to visit the National Museum of the Marine Corps.

One of my vibrant colleagues was kind enough to arrange a special tour for a group of us.  We had two tour guides (Marine Volunteers) who told us great stories.  The museum itself is quite fascinating with some very realistic exhibits.  Here's a link for a virtual tour and here's a clip of what you can expect.


 

Of course on the way home I was peppered with all sorts of questions about what happened during which war and was the Cold War really cold.

  1. How fun to see pictures and read about your adventures. One tip I got from Sheri about going to museums is to start at the gift shop and let the kids pick out a postcard or two with art or objects from the museum and then go look for that in the museum. it was a great help to keep the interested.

    miss you!
