air & space museum

Since we arrived in Washington, DC at 5:30pm, we missed the airplane museum. Juma was disappointed and grumpy, so our friend Erik suggested another air and space museum between Omaha and Lincoln, Nebraska. We were running late the day through Iowa, and pushed to make it to the museum before closing so Juma wouldn't have his hopes crushed twice. We pulled up at 4:50pm and raced inside only to be told the museum would close in 8 minutes. Justin put on his charm and got us those 8 minutes without the entrance fee.

The museum had numerous actual planes, including ones that were used in WWII and a Blackbird. Juma was in heaven, though a little intimidated by how absolutely large the planes looked so close up.
