Spring into the Spirit of Washington DC

Spring is upon us here in Washington DC, so what type of activities can you enjoy? There are an endless number of things to do in Washington DC, and with the weather starting to improve, we thought we would take a look at some of the activities that residents and tourists will be enjoying around the city this spring.
