One of the things I have wanted to do for a while was visit the Newseum in WashingtonD.C. The museum, which is dedicated to journalism, is shiny and new and in a wonderful location right in view of the Capitol on Pennsylvania Avenue. However, unlike the Smithsonian Museums only blocks away, the Newseum is not free. In fact its pretty much $20 for entrance.So I decided I’m going to go with my dad, because a) he loves museums and b) if he goes he’ll pay for me.
