Cherry Blossoms
Nothing says spring to me more than the Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C.
Actually, I don't know if I have a more favorite place in all the world than the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. at Cherry Blossom time.
I was lucky to live in DC for 4 years. One year I went at all different times of day, early morning, late afternoon, evening, etc. It's just a beautiful, gorgeous sight to behold.
The Tidal Basin area has a lot of fond memories for me. It was at the FDR memorial that Mark and I got engaged!
This year it's not in the cards for us to make a trip down there, but I'd love to go next year and show my kids one of my favorite places in all the world.

have you been to the cherry blossom festival at the brooklyn botanical gardens? i hear it rivals that of the one in dc. that may be a good day trip for you...i hear they have lots of great activities for the kiddos etc. i was planning to go one day...and then i moved!
We lived about a 3 minute walk from the Botanic Gardens when we were in Brooklyn, and went there weekly. The Cherry Blossom festival there is great - worth checking out.
