Cherry Blossoms - Washington D.C.




Cherry blossoms around the Tidal Basin.
Notice the blossoms in the background that outline the Tidal Basin.



We took a one day bus trip to see the cherry blossoms in Washington D.C. We had a very nice trip! We stopped at the Old Post Office Pavillion for lunch. We took the elevator to the top of the clock tower for a view of the city. Then we visited the monuments with stops along the way to view the cherry trees. The only disappointment of the day was that the skies were foggy. I would've loved for the skies to be blue, but you can't have everything picture perfect. Since then, it's been busy, busy around here. And I've been struggling with headaches that literally make my head ache even after they go away. Today was the first in about a week that I didn't struggle with anything too severe which was good since we had our Easter party at school. My children enjoyed the egg hunt so much that we did it six times! They were delighted to say the least. We played some other games as well. Thankfully, we have off tomorrow - a much needed break from the daily routine. Have a Happy Easter!
