Went with relatives to DC. Up Friday, Sat round the Tidal Basin and Sun back home. 4.5 hrs or so travel time each way.
If you ever get the chance to get there at Cherry Blossom Time do it. Yes its crowded, yes DC is a pita, yes it can cost a few extra bucks and yes traffic is a real double pita. But those trees are worth it.
