Postal Museum

Last week weekend we went to the Smithsonian Postal Museum. We were actually able to see the entire museum with Julia, crazy. I guess the small size had something to do with it.

The building was cool. It was the old Washington D.C. post office.

This is the packaging the Hope Diamond was sent to the Smithsonian in. The man who donated it, Harry Winston, sent it in 1958 to the Smithsonian via the U.S. Postal System.

Tried out some old and new forms of transportation that the mail takes to get to us.
