chasing after cherries

It was a sprint to get to the cherry blossoms this year. I went at the very end of "peak week". It wasn't exactly full bloom when I got there. The leaves started to sprout already. Still, I'm grateful I got to go. I was scared that I might have had to go by myself. I had such a hard time finding someone to accompany me. I was willing to go alone, but I'm not too comfortable going on the metro by myself or finding my way around D.C. In the end, there was a small group of us that met up. I had a good a time, despite all the walking we did. It was the beginning of a fun weekend.
