The National Zoo!

On President's Day, Jose, Factor, and Casimiro and I went to visit the National Zoo in Washington. Even though the sky threatened rain all morning (and actually did sprinkle some while we were walking to the zoo), the precip held off and we had a nice visit. The National Zoo is laid out pretty well- one main path, with animal exhibits/enclosures oriented in a "spoke" pattern off the main path. You basically walk either up (or down) hill (depending on which entrance you came in), and then walk to the other side. It was cold, but not as cold as our visit to the White House, National Mall and Smithsonian back on Martin Luther King Jr holiday. Here are a few photos (before my camera died... after suffering myriad camera deaths because of crappy [i.e., weak] AA batteries, I broke down and bought nice rechargeable batteries- the first set has lasted two weeks and taken dozens of flash pictures!)
