I'm such a lover of traditions. Ten years straight now. Same tree for sitting on (not pictured), same walk around in the same order, same jumping from benches, picnic, and so on.
Today the girls donned their newest crocheted (not by me) hats and off we went. It turned really chilly, so thank goodness they were smarter than me with jackets ... still, we all froze.
Tomorrow we'll go back again and enjoy the massive crowds and the festival events. Today, surprisingly sparse amounts of people. Love the tourists though. Big DC shirts and camera phones for picture taking (not knocking either habit, just enjoying the sight of so many at once, from all over the world, doing and wearing the same thing). However, they are always walking on the wrong side and I can't believe that none ever fall off into the Tidal Basin. I stick to the grass for fear one will knock ME into the water.
More photos tomorrow. I am sleepy. Must rest up for the next round tomorrow.
