We visited the National Zoo on Saturday


My boy in his glory - fish, fish, fish - see him glowing?!

The kids liked this bird - Heather said she read it was a pigeon.

They thought this Toucan was very pretty.


Taking a break from the walking and having some ice cream.

There's an elephant behind them somewhere!

Searching for elephants and following their "foot steps".

Exploring the butterfly exhibit.

The weather was so nice I was crazy enough to take the kids to the "big" zoo. We walked and walked and walked some more! Heather and Trevor freaked out everytime they saw a bee and there were a LOT of them. Heather's favorite animal was the horse - "it was quite a surprise and I found that very interesting and unexpected". Trevor's was....wait for it....the FISH! So...needless to say, we are officially done with the big zoo - its not worth the aggrevation to me and we shall now stick with either the national aquarium or petting zoo for our animal fixes.
