Cherry Blossoms!

April is one of my favorite times of year in D.C. The sun finally begins to shine and the cherry blossoms bloom. You really have to live here (or come for a long stay at just the right time) to enjoy cherry blossoms. They change to so many vibrant colors in the short two weeks that they bloom. It's very romantic to spend a morning walking around the tidal basin with white, pink and light purple blooms all around you.
