I couldn't believe all of the tour buses parked around the Lincoln Memorial & Smithsonian on Wednesday & Thursday. I always wanted to go to the Museum of the American Indian, but it was just too crowded to appreciate it. It requires a LOT of reading & I really couldn't get close enough to read things. The architecture is spectacular, though.
