Item Description
Enjoy this fascinating tour of the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History's Sant Ocean Hall with Curator Dr. Nancy Knowlton. The ocean is a global system essential to all life, including yours! By visiting the ocean hall, you can explore the ocean from the sunlit surface to the darkest depths, from prehistory to today, and from the smallest microorganisms to the biggest animals ever known. The ocean is a huge, awesome realm - sometimes mysterious, but always amazing. Come and dive in! Tour also includes a "behind-the-scenes" visit to the museum's collections.
After your tour, enjoy a delicious meal at the nearby Carmine's Italian Restaurant with a $100 gift certificate. Carmine's is a family style restaurant offering exceptional value to its guests through the many dishes of Southern Italian cuisine. Restaurateur Artie Cutler crafted the Carmine's concept with a singular vision; bringing his guests "wow-factor" sized portions and making any meal feel like an Italian American wedding feast. Platters of homestyle antipasto, pasta, decadent seafood or meat entrees, and of course homemade desserts are all staples at Carmine's, meant for sharing amongst friends and family. When great food and wine are supported by friendly and knowledgeable service, the results are magic! http://www.carminesnyc.com/locations/washington-dc/
