As the Azaleas are Brian's favorite thing in spring today was the perfect day to go to the National Arboretum to see the azalea gardens. After going to the Alexandria Farmer's Market off we went to see what was blooming.
As it turns out lots of things were blooming. The Azaleas weren't in full bloom yet but enough to make you smile. We have seen it in previous years where the whole place in afire in color and you think that you have been transported into a magical land. I think in the next day or two it will be the peak.
The striped white and pink ones I think are my favorite as no two flowers are the same. I think it's because they look hand painted that they are may favorite.
Some of the colors are so intense that it's almost impossible to photograph them. You truely have to be there.
