National Gallery of Art. Great sculpture garden.
National Cathederal. Awe-inspiring architecture, irrespective of your
religious bent.

Yeah, that's the biggest bummer with sites like Expedia -- the costs if
your plans change.

FYI, the Smithsonian's American History Museum is currently closed for
renovations.
Also, don't forget that there is a whole new branch of the Air and
Space Museum out by Dulles.

Yes, the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center is part of the National Air and
Space Museum but it is located near Dulles Airport. My wife and I
visited it last year.
I took this picture there:

They also have the Space Shuttle Enterprise there. It is hard to
describe how large the space shuttle is until you see it up close.
Also highly recommended is the new WWII memorial. Take some time with
this one because there is a LOT of detail and you will miss a lot of it
if you're take your time.
