One-day April Bus Trip: A D.C. Experience, April 3

April 3, 2023 @ 8:00 am - 8:15 pm

Cherry Blossoms, Luncheon Cruise, Gardens, Tea & More

Enjoy a two-hour luncheon cruise experience on board the all-glass Odyssey. Take in monumental views of Washington, D.C., delectable dining, and a sophisticated ambiance. After the cruise, we will visit the U.S. Botanic Gardens, a museum with living treasures of the plant world. The towering leaves, graceful flowers, delicate seeds, and exotic fruits of plants at their peak are displayed artfully throughout the historic Conservatory. This is a selfguided experience.

We end our day with a visit to Teaism for tea and dessert. Founded in 1996, the tea house’s goal is to make exquisite loose leaf tea accessible to all. In a time and place where tea is too often a dark powder in a bag with a string, these tea enthusiasts wanted to highlight the beautiful diversity of the camellia sinensis plant. To accompany the teas,and to highlight the cuisines of countries where teas are grown, Teaism, in addition to desserts, serves curries, bento boxes, and other Asianinspired meals.
