Washington D.C. Cherry Blossom

[livinginiran]

I've been thinking of attending Washington's Cherry Blossom festival, which starts this weekend and lasts for 3 weeks... Best time for me and my friends seem to be this weekend (March 29th) but I'm a little worried that maybe the trees won't be in full bloom by next week

i'd wait a little, it's a bit cold here right now!

also, be prepared for enormous crowds. it can be kind of unpleasant.

The coldness wouldn't be a problem, because I am completely used to weather here in Pittsburgh, and Washington DC wouldn't be colder than Pittsburgh, would it?

All I care about is the beauty of the blossoms! Considering the current state of the trees, do you think there will be enough fully opened flowers on them by coming weekend?

[hooveraardvark]

no, i meant the cold will affect the trees . . . if we keep having a cold spell that may delay full blossoming. probably if you come in the middle/towards the end of the actual ceremonies, there will be plenty of flowers.

Aww I see... Good point!
