What's going on in DC this weekend?

Where should I take my parents in DC this weekend?

My parents are coming to visit this weekend, but Snowmageddon has put a real damper on plans. I know the Smithsonian is open; does anyone have other suggestions of where to take visitors this weekend? They've been here before, so we're not looking to do anything super touristy.

Busboys & Poets is great for a meal and has some really interesting stuff going on this weekend.

I would be helpful to know what their interests are (D.C. is getting back to normal today and there's actually a lot going on this weekend.)

The good 'ol Washington Monument was the surprise hit of our last trip to DC...

1. The National Cathedral (if anyone even remotely likes architecture)

2. Politics and Prose, my favorite bookstore in DC. Sometimes you'll see journalist-types there (one time I saw Evan Thomas there).
