Cherry Blossoms at the Tidal Basin
Mom carefully planned her return visit to coincide with the Cherry Blossom Festival which lasts for two weeks in the early spring of every year. While there are cherry trees sprinkled throughout Washington, DC, the biggest concentration of trees is around the Tidal Basin by the Jefferson Memorial. We'd been having a lot of cloudy, drizzly days and I was worried that I might not get good pictures while the trees were at their peak. We got lucky with one really nice sunny day and spent a couple of hours enjoying the sunshine and blossoms. Here are a couple of my favorite pics. You can see all of them here.

These came out fantastic! Washington monument shot is great!
ReplyDeleteThanks! The blossoms were so beautiful that it was easy to get some good shots. The hard part was elbowing all the other tourists out of the way! :-)
