I went to that festival in the late 90's...and not a single tree in the whole city had one god damn blossom on it. Warm spring, blossomed early, I got nuttin.... 
Ended up OK however, stayed at the Hinkley Hilton, and my then wife and I re-enacted scenes of me being shot (ala Reagan) and her taking care of me the whole weekend.

When we lived in the DC area we went one year and it really was pretty awesome. IIRC they had a kite festival going on at the time too.

Might actually go this year - mainly to see the fireworks.
It's pretty, but I never understood why people travel just to see it.

I was going to say the same thing. I enjoyed the one I went to in Japan far more than the one in DC.
