Well, since no one's asked what my perfect vacation is, I guess I'll have to usurp the podium myself. My ideal solo vacation is a week or so wandering around the Smithsonian. When the traveling version visited Minnesota awhile back, I went on a field trip, and that collection was barely scratching the surface. Imagine what I could see in a week at the real thing!
