Indeed, the American Kitefliers Association and the Kite Trade Association International have declared April National Kite Month, and the groups hope to assemble 1,000 kite-related events worldwide throughout the month (to date, 162 exist). So, go ahead and unfurl that kite into the bright blue sky and let the breeze take it -- and you -- wherever it may. -- Andrea Sachs ]]>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A27133-2005Mar11.html?nav=rss_travel/archive/subject/eventshttp://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A27133-2005Mar11.html?nav=rss_travel/archive/subject/eventsFri, 25 Mar 2005 21:31:53 GMTFew cities deserve a giant pick-me-up bouquet after a dreary winter more than London.

That's the conclusion one comes to after reading the lineup for Forum 2004, a massive celebration designed to put the city back in the global spotlight this summer.

Dumb question . . . who doesn't? We asked Travel staffer Andrea Sachs to send Washingtonians packing on a year's worth of weekend getaways, starting with next Friday through Sunday. All are four hours or less by car from the Beltway, and there's a jaunt for every type, from riding white-water rapids in West Virginia, to viewing art in a Delaware estate, to gorging on chocolate in Hershey, Pa.
