I made it down to DC this weekend for the cherry blossoms. Unfortunately, I was a whole 4 days past peak bloom. Normally 4 days would not seem like a lot of time, but cherry blossoms are delicate and fleeting, and that is part of their beauty.
Don't misunderstand, it was still beautiful, you just have to be a little more careful about where you stop for pictures. And maybe this actually make those trees that are blooming just a little late even that more lovely, because it feels like a gift that they waited for my arrival to show off at their fullest potential.
