Washington DC has an annual cherry blossom festival every year, and every year thousands of tourists come to look at them, and the pollen sufferers suffer and the town is shut down for a week. Oh and the thing that made me laugh was that there are lots of japenese who go to look at them, and they were the ones that donated the them in the first place and they have millions in their country already!!!!! BUT saying that the festival is amazing, lots of geisha girls, dragons and happy people with cherry blossoms in their hair!
