A Day at the Zoo - September 3rd, 2011

A day at the zoo is always a hit when we have visitors in town. This past week Coco came down from Boston to visit, so we decided to make the trip to DC for a fun day seeing the animals. We got to the zoo nice and early and were surprised to see all of the activity that we usually don't get to see. The Sloth Bear was out, we were able to see the Leopard, and the Panda was taking a nap out in the open and it wasn't crowded yet, so we were able to get a great view. We had some showers that started as we were eating lunch, but it didn't last too long so we were able to continue our visit and view the gorillas, lions and tigers. This is the first time that Becca has been to the zoo where she has been alert enough to really enjoy it, so that was really fun to see.
