Washington DC: Jefferson Memorial

The Jefferson Memorial overlooks the Tidal Basin and is a walk that bit further from the rest of the mall as it requires walking around the Tidal Basin.  But as there are the MLK memorial and FDR memorial on the way around the Tidal Basin, it is well worth the visit!

Below are some photos of the Jefferson Memorial from a bright evening in April.

Virginia: Colonial Williamsburg

On a cold April day, we visited Colonial Williamsburg for the first time to see the living history museum that is the walking part of the city.  In the city, people dress in period costumes from when Williamsburg was the capitol of the Colony of Virginia.

Washington DC: Just missed the cherry blossoms!

Having been away during the peak cherry blossom week, I caught them the next week and unfortunately did not see them in full bloom.  I guess there's always next year!
