Not to take anything away from Sept. 11 in my last post, I thought I would post about some of the other things I did the same weekend.
If you have one place you need to eat at while in DC it is Rays Hell Burger. I had seen it on TV and my roommate Mike had been wanting to go for a while. So we took that bus and were in for the best Hamburger I have ever had in my life.
Here is the delivery. Amazaing hamburger, amazing onion rings.
Just to prove it, here i am in front of the Rays. The next morning we woke up and were craving the place. Really it is that good!
While we waited for another friend to join us we checked out the market on the street. There were a ton of little stands. This is me sulking because I didnt win a free ticket to the Newseum and all the rest of my friends did.
We also visited the Spy Museum. Though I enjoyed it I dont think it was worth the money you have to pay to get inside. This could be the excpetion if you grew up wanting to be a spy.
There were some real neat gadgets and stuff throughout the museum, including the cool spy car that had built in guns behind the headlights.

I've been to Ray's! It was great.
Haven't made it to Ray's Hell Burgers, but went to Rays the Steaks for my birthday the other year. I got a ridiculously large and delicious rib eye.
Re. The Spy Museum, it is a little pricy as far as museums go around here... but we usually go for the combo tickets. For example, Operation Spy takes you on an hour-ish long experience where you infiltrate a country, use remote surveillance tools, practice your SIGINT techniques by decoding audio, search an office and try to crack a safe, interrogate a suspect, and eventually escape from the country. Then you get to go see the rest of the museum after your tour.
We also did Spy in the City with Clint - you'll have to ask him what he thought of that, since I'm obviously biased ;-)
Lastly, Groupon and LivingSocial have put out tickets for Spy Museum and the Newseum that are usually half-price (Living Social, DC 1-Day Deals, put out $9 Spy Museum tickets on 13 Sep 10).
