on memorial day we took the metro over to the national zoological park with bryce & jamie.
stone knows i like 'em tall...
couple of buddies hanging out.
ditto.
jamie & ellery.
elles and 'pooh bear'.
it was scourching hot but watching the elephants drink & throw dust was kind of awesome.
one unique thing about this zoo is that they have viewing bridges
over some of the habitats.
the pandas were super fun too! can you tell miss e had a hard time saying dry? looong story. gross, long story. yuck.
we were just gross & sweaty all day long. we definitely stayed hydrated though. :)
ellery tried counting the stripes & calling for the 'zebers'.
& tarzan-ing for the gorillas with daddy.
i don't think you understand how hot it was. i guess i best get over that one asap.
aust loved the tiger pacing back & forth & swatting at his ball in the water. he wanted to bring him home. i think that's about as close as he could get to being a cat person. haha.
what a good sport this sweet thing is!
it was a very impressive zoo; we kept marveling that it was free! the walk home was crazy intense but really lush & beautiful. my only regret was on the metro home we passed arlington cemetery & felt like real losers for not even thinking of going there. would have been the perfect way to spend memorial day.

I think everybody and their dog goes to Arlington Cemetary on Memorial Day. The crowds would've been terrible, but the scene and sobriety of the place would be life changing. Maybe next year
:)
