I took my family to the International Spy Museum last weekend.
If you've never been, I highly recommend it. In fact, I couldn't recommend it higher if I wanted to. it's just an amazing place, a very interesting look into the world of espionage. There are so many rooms to see and so many things to do. I particularly loved the walk through the WW2-era section, with its pictures of celebrities who were involved in either fighting in WW2 or in espionage in WW2 (Josephine Baker smugging invisible ink messages inside sheet music; Julia Child's shark repellant formula during her tenure in the OSS). The Cold War era spy wing was also great, because it's full of things that have happened during my lifetime.
Seriously, go. It's very cool.
