Catherine arrived late last night and after a leisurely breakfast of home made blueberry pancakes we drove up to Crystal City and caught the Metro to DC for the Cherry Blossom Festival. We overheard somebody compain about everybody admiring and photographing the blossoms in one place as there were "plenty of apple blossoms on the other side of the lake".
The weather was a bit overcast, and the crowds (near the car parks) were big but the blossoms have hit their peak and were breathtaking. We're now both tired and have aching legs from all the working, so were sat downstairs reading the Sunday paper and watching the squirrels running around.
We're having a quiet evening on Monday and then it's a busy week: Titus Andronicus on Tuesday, Basketball on Wednesday, Washington Zoo on Friday and Baseball and Mount Vernon on Saturday. I should have an easy night on Thursday as Kitty should be going shopping with Holly.
