One of the coolest things to do in D.C. is to go down to the Tidal Basin (which overlooks the Jefferson Memorial) and take in the amazing cherry blossoms. The Cherry trees that ring the basin explode with color and a wonderful scent as spring makes its triumphant, and LONG overdue return.

We've got lots of inlaws coming into town for Jenny's baby shower this weekend, so the timing worked out fantastically for flower viewing. ¡Viva la primavera! Long live spring!
