FIRST IMPRESSIONS: EASTER IN VIRGINIA

Iwo Jima! It still takes my breath away. We drove by it every time we came and went from our hotel, the Hyatt in Arlington, where the 3 of us stayed for our first weekend in D.C.
And of course the focus of our visit, our beautiful daughter, who we had missed so much! She's sitting in a weeping cherry in Arlington Cemetery. Yeah, we didn't quite miss out on all the cherry blossoms!
In historic Jamestown our tour guide was awesome. Our 40 minute tour took almost an hour and a half and we didn't even realize it! He was great!This is a view through the windshield of Jessi's Audi on our way from Jamestown to Williamsburg. (Through the windshield as you're driving is about the only way to photograph these views, because as you can see there are no shoulders on the roads like we have here!) Everywhere you looked there were redbuds and white dogwoods. Beautiful!
Then of course there were the tulips! Lots of tulips, as you will see in future posts!
