I wanted Dear Hubby (DH) to see Niagara Falls since he’d never been there, and I had only been there in 6th grade. We also wanted to check out the Finger Lakes of New York. Since we had to fly out of DC on our return trip (Thing 2 was doing a summer internship there), we quickly traveled to the Hudson River Valley and Philly. This is a fast-paced itinerary with lots of waterfall hikes!

At the conclusion of our trip to the Finger Lakes in New York, we found ourselves in Washington, DC. The National Museum of African-American History and Culture (NMAAHC) topped our list of things to see on this trip.
Admission is free but timed-entry tickets are required. Even though the website showed tickets weren’t available on the weekend of our visit, NMAAHC releases a batch of same-day tickets at 8:15 am. It was worth a shot and we secured tickets for 2:30 pm that same day.
