National Zoo

The National Zoo is probably the most amazing zoo I've ever been too. It has everything you can think of (though not giraffes for some reason). My favorite was the Pandas, by far. Regan loved the hippos and talked about them all afternoon (Ryan's favorite too!). Here are a few shots...keep in mind, it was another hot and HUMID day :)
Panda eating lunch, it's amazing how close we got! He sure was putting on a show for everyone.

Look at that hair! Did I mention it was humid? She kept pulling off her hat so we just lathered her hair/head with sunscreen.

Ben and Regan checking out the aquariums.


The orangatangs are free to roam the zoo! Yep, they let them out and they walk above you on these ropes, no enclosures or anything. There are signs talking about how/why they don't come down or fall. They were so cool.


This thing in the petting zoo took a big dump right before I took this photo. Ryan was explaining it all to Regan...hilarious!


Sidney snoozing on mom.


I wonder why no one was in this exhibit? Again, it was out in the open without fences/screens. Strange. We saw the sign and kept right on walking!

Uncle Ben and Regan posing with the monkeys.... Regan went right in front of his head!
