On Saturday, we met up with my dad and stepmother, and took the kids to the National Zoo. It was my first trip there in over 25 years, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The last zoological exhibit I visited was the Monterey Bay Aquarium in 1999. Evie wasn’t sure she liked it until after lunch, at which point she warmed up quite a bit. It’s tough enjoying a walk when you’re hungry!
We saw about half the exhibits, which was pretty commendable since we didn’t get there until a quarter of eleven. Among other affable animals we ran into were the lazy pandas…
…the lazy tigers…
…the lazy lions…
…and a lazy cheetah.
It was a good day for sleeping at the zoo apparently.
