They are gorgeous! I got to look at them for hours while I was stuck in traffic in front of the memorials. Damn tourists! Grrrr!For real though - I was thinking about walking around the tidal basin before the end of the week. Would anybody be up for that?

scratchapella Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 i think the cherry blossoms are nice (went by on wednesday last week) but overrated. . .i like seeing random crocuses at the very end of winter, or the daffodils, tulips or irises just pushing up. . . question for everyone: what's your favorite flower?

wideskies Posted April 9 Author Report Share Posted April 9 i would *love* to see pictures of the tidal basin!i would also love to walk around there with you guys, but i'll have to be satisfied with the Big Apple's flowering trees for now.the tidal basin is lovely at night. you guys should have a pre-Buzz late evening picnic/preparty down there some time. it's a short drive away from Nation, after all.:]i love irises, water and daylillies, and lily of the valley too.

therunner Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Can you have BBQ's and stuff like that in the "tidal basin" area. or anyplace around there. I know you can't go right up to the Lincoln Memorial and stike up a bonfire but somewhere in the vicinity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wideskies Posted April 9 Author Report Share Posted April 9 hmmm.... u know... i'm not sure about being able to cook anything down there. there may be designated areas closer to the mall, but not sure about right along the water's edge.of course, the sorts of things i like to eat before going out dancing don't usually include steaks n burgers. ;] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I had just gone hungary cause I felt like ass for about three hours afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went to the TCBY by the Farragut North metro and they told me I couldn't get a milkshake because they were out of milk. Hello? Now that's ghetto... And I didn't want to get a shake at McDonalds... blah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
