Cherry Blossoms - Washington DC trip

For those of you unfamiliar with April in the nations capital, it is the time of year when the many cherry trees are in full bloom.  It is truly a spectacular sight; every tree around the pond near the Jefferson Memorial is in full bloom.  It is beautiful, or at least it would be if there were not 100,000 other people also crowded together to get a look.  It was the most crowded I had ever seen the Mall and it was exhausting just moving through the crowd.

We still were able to get a few good pictures and check this one off of our East Coast proverbial bucket list.
