Cherry Blossoms in DC

The cherry blossoms are in full bloom mode in DC, with breathtaking beauty especially around the Tidal Basin. A feast for the eyes. However, that viewing comes with the expense of thousands of people trying to do the same thing with crippling traffic, and today, the tragic death of a young man at the Capitol this afternoon. Thankfully, our travels were West of the area, as the Capitol and White House were on lock down for a few hours until all the details were sorted out by law enforcement. 

It was great that we walked a lot after going to the running expo for the race tomorrow, but used the red Capital Bikes to get around the city which was a lot of fun and faster too. (Better when you know where all the bike carrels are located!)

BSoleille! The bright side of sunshine, full bloom cherry blossoms and a bright blue sky!
