Who's Ready...

to revisit Washington??  Come on, I know you are!!

This was such an amazing trip, and we took so many pictures!!
We use the timer on the camera to get all our "selfies"


There were tulips everywhere,


and when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere.
Every single garden we passed was abundant with color.


This mix of colors were beautiful!!


Here we are in front of the Botanical Gardens!!


These beautiful white gardens...


surrounded this gorgeous Smithsonian Museum.


Saving the best for last, these tulips were absolutely gorgeous!!

We saw a lot, we missed a lot...
I still have a lot to share!!

I love Washington D.C. I love the museums, and everything. I've been there a few times and I never get tired of the history and feeling there! Loved the pictures Debbie. The flowers are so beautiful! Can't wait to see more!

So beautiful! Such colors! LOVE the Smithsonian...I could just stare at the outside of the building for hours...I know...but I'm an architect's daughter, what can I say! That last tulip looks like the wild skirt of a flamenco dancer!!
