A charge nurse in Maryland, a few blocks away from Washington, District of Columbia – who asked for her name not to be revealed – received a bag containing seeds from a friend in her workplace months ago. She told the team here on Ridesharing Forum how she carelessly threw the seeds in the garden of the townhouse she rents.
Now, the seeds are in full bloom, showcasing beautiful, lush leaves and florals.
“Is it really spring? Like FR, FR?” she captioned her social post featuring the image of the garden.
She was trying to say, “Is it really spring? Like for real?”
Yes, girl, for real. While some unforgettable moments from the winter season are still lingering, spring has arrived. And, in Washington, D.C., it’s not merely about spring breaks and spring cleaning. Here are Lyft’s best things to do in spring in the District of Columbia.
Stock up on peanuts and Cracker Jacks
Could you believe that this is America’s favorite pastime? Yes. This family-friendly activity happens in the springtime weather at the Nationals Park – not National Park – located in the southern portion of Washington, south of the Capitol and along the Capitol Riverfront adjacent to the Navy Yard.
Experience transportainment
Forget about the monotonous hop-on, hop-off buses, and concentrate on these trolleys that will take you around the city aboard. Believe it or not, it will stop at over 100 popular and important points of interest. These include the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, the Smithsonian Museums, the Washington Monument, the White House, the National Archives, and so much more. What’s great is that they’d allow you to spend some time in those locations. Like Klook!
Drink it up in District of Columbia’s best bars
Is springtime a nice season for drinking? Absolutely. Come visit the best bars in Washington, D.C., such as The Alchemist DC, VUE Rooftop, Jack Rose Dining Saloon, and a whole lot more. Incredible at that.
Spend a wild time at the National Zoo
Springtime is when animals shake off the frostbites, or the frost. They’re moving actively again under the heat of the sun. So, head over to the Smithsonian’s National Zoo to witness this resurrection of more than 2,000 animals of 400 different species. There’s the giant panda cub Bao Bao having fun in the spring, Asian elephants, lions, gorillas, porcupines, lemurs, reptiles, birds, and more.
Tour the monument under the stars
Under the stars it is, and you’re not missing the show. When the night falls in spring in the country’s capital, you can continue hopping aboard the town trolley for the Monuments by Moonlight tour. Yes, BLACKPINK’s Lisa’s song is playing. Kiss meee… this nightly tour makes stops at several notable landmarks, like the Lincoln Memorial and FDR Memorial, except that everything happens at night.
