The National Zoo


On Tuesday (the 17th) it was our niece's birthday and her mommy invited us all to a trip to the zoo to celebrate. It was a beautiful day to be there. It wasn't too hot and it was not humid. It was perfect weather. Here are a few shots from the day. If you can get to the zoo, I highly recommend it....although pack a lunch and bring some water. Even though admission is FREE, a 24oz bottle of Dasani is $3.00! AANNNDD the food is pretty bad and super expensive too!

I love how the orangutans climb over you on the ropes!

I think that this is the Mama Panda, Mei Xiang, but I'm not positive. The rumors are that she may be pregnant again however they won't know for a while if it's a false pregnancy which is common in Giant Pandas. Learn something new every day!

Birds are pretty boring in my opinion (sorry bird lovers)...but we had to see the flamingos for Miranda. She said afterwards that it was her favorite animal of the day.

So there is a small glimpse of our visit. I hope you enjoyed! ~Tiffany
