| The Floral Library on the south side of the Mall. It's basically a
tulip garden. Colorful.

| Cherry Blossoms

|
| Cherry blossoms!
| Older cherry blossoms, faded to pink, with the tidal basin and the
Washington Monument.
| Cherry blossom come one after another and overhang the path. Watch your
head!

| Some trees are still in full bloom, though there's already many blossoms
on the ground.

This is near the Martin Luther King Junior Memorial.
| Requisite cross-tidal-basin shot of the Washington Monument. Yes, those
are cherry blossom trees on the far side--some I even photographed--and
no, I don't know why there's not as colorful from afar in this
direction.
| Soft-pink blossoms.

|
|
| All-white blossoms near the FDR Memorial.
| Pow! this tree is out in full force.
| Even pinker ground than before.
| I like the look of these tall, wide trees with white blossoms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Pure white blossoms with pure blue sky above.
| Blossoms that are the closest to red of any we saw.
| Heading long the Potomac into East Potomac Park.

|
|
|
| Pinkish-purple blossoms.
| Di Yin and I wondered what these large, seemingly residential buildings
are across the water on the northeast side of East Potomac Park.
