Just not sure what the difference in the 2 museums are.  Anyone have a preference?

Thanks!

    we live closer to the one at Dulles, plenty of parking and free entry. parking is $$$ but free after 4:30.

    DC one is a hassle for us b/c we'd have to drive to the metro and then metro in

    Dulles is a gigantic airplane hanger.  we loved it because with the little one it was great to go with little people.

     DC is more educational and has more "stuff"

    My kids like both. The one in DC has a lot more variety and that's where most of the space stuff is. It's a lot more crowded. The one in Dulles is really big and open. They have a lot of the airplanes there which my kids think is neat. They also have a tower that is supposed to be like an air traffic control tower and you can see a lot from up there. We've gone when it's pretty empty and they could run around some (please don't judge me! :) )

    i think the one in dc is really kid-oriented; i never plan to go there myself again without a kdi.  the one out at dulles is fine for kids but also interesting for adults.
