A few favorite pics from our 2013 visit to Washington DC.
The first pic, of the Washington Monument, taken from across the Tidal Basin, looks like a postcard.. The lighting was just right.
The second is the Jefferson Memorial framed by the cherry blossoms.
The third features tourists enjoying DC's famous cherry blossom festival along the Potomic Park Tidal Basin.
The last photo is the Washington Monument peeking up through the cherry blowwoms. You can see the scafolding that was in place. The giant obelisk was being repaired after a rare earthquake hit the East Coast in 2011.

早咲きで有名な静岡県河津町の河津桜ですが、2025年は寒波に襲われたことから、「河津桜まつり」期間最後にやっと咲き始めました(2025年2月27日)

早咲きで有名な静岡県河津町の河津桜ですが、2025年は寒波に襲われたことから、「河津桜まつり」期間最後にやっと咲き始めました(2025年2月27日)早咲きで有名な静岡県河津町の河津桜を見に行ってきましたので、その様子を紹介します。 「河津桜まつり」は2月1日から2月28日までの1か月間の予定でしたが、今年2025年は、日本列島が何回かの長期寒波に襲われ、河津桜も開花が遅れたことから、3月9日まで祭期間が延長されました。 2月上旬の段階で既に開花が遅れていましたが、2月月末には何とか見頃を迎えるだろうと予想し、宿を2月27日に予約して河津桜を見に行くことにしました。その後も長期寒波が襲来したことから、開花は結局2月下旬となりましたが、ここ数日暖かい日が続いたことから、2月27日現在では、一部が見頃を迎えているという状況でした。
