THING TO DO
Walk under the vintage mail planes and stagecoach
at Smithsonian National Postal Museum
The atrium hangs actual mail-carrying aircraft from the ceiling and puts a Concord stagecoach and railway mail car on the floor, so you get a sense of how mail physically moved before it moved digitally.
