The Smithsonian Castle

The Smithsonian Museum is more than just one museum -- I counted 17. We chose four we want to see. One was the Castle. Turns out the Castle is not really a museum. It is just a information center. Plus it was one of the most beautiful buildings in a town of beautiful buildings.


They did one exhibit. It was former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright Pin Collection. These pictures are just a very few.


There were pins with attitude!!!

There were hearts.

Apparently, Madeleine is a Star Trek fan -- these were pins from outer space.

There were musical pins.

And, wild animal pins.

Fruits and Veggies.

And leaves and mushrooms.

P. S. I discovered halfway through we discovered we were not supposed to photograph her pins. Oops!!!!
