I'ma go to the Holocaust Museum, myself.
you need to get tickets, which are free. From the site (www.ushmm.org)
NO PASSES are necessary for entering the Museum building, special exhibitions, the interactive Wexner Learning Center, and other Museum resources. Even if you cannot get Permanent Exhibition passes for the day you want to come, we invite you to visit and take advantage of the Museum's many other learning opportunities. Find out what's inside.
TIMED PASSES are necessary for visiting the Permanent Exhibition — The Holocaust — and can be obtained at the Museum on the day of your visit or in advance by calling tickets.com at (800) 400–9373. Each day, the Museum distributes on a first–come first–served basis a large but limited number of timed entry passes for use that same day.
I'd like to go see the Wall as well (not with you DX, just in general). I have no personal connection to Viet Nam, but that monument in particular is sort of designed to make it personal.
Thanks for the meetup place, Steph. I've got driving directions, so everything should be copacetic. But you're in my cell phone should I get lost.

I'm torn on wanting to go to the Wall and/or the Holocaust Museum. I've been to the Wall before, but that was a long time ago, before the first Gulf War, and honestly, I was 17. War wasn't real to me. I'd like to see the wall through 16 more years of experience.
However, I *also* know myself well enough to know that going to either -- but especially the Holocaust Museum -- will upset me enough that I might well be useless for the rest of the day.
Spy Museum for me. I can sneak around corners in my inconspicuous cherry dress and hot pink wig.
I'd like to visit the Holocaust Museum, but not on this trip.
The Holocaust Museum is very good. I won't be going a second time.
I won't be going a second time.
See, that reaction right there is why I can't go on this trip. It'll unhinge me.
There's a very good Holocaust museum out here too (in addition to the Simon Weisenthal Center, which I haven't been to yet), and I visited that museum late last year.
The Holocaust Museum is very good. I won't be going a second time.
Goes to stand in Jessica's corner. I am torn on if I want to go see the Wall for a second time, but I am sure I won't be doing the Holocaust Museum again.
Cincinnati actually has a Holocaust museum, which I only recently discovered. I haven't been to it yet.
