Take breaks! After a few hours, it was hard to absorb info. There are nice seating areas to recharge and get back to exploring.
I really enjoyed the First Ladies exhibit, but it gets super crowded. Try to hit that one right when the museum opens, around 10 AM.
Check out the museum’s website for free timed passes, it can save you a lot of time waiting in line. I wish I had done that!
