The National Zoo

A while ago we trekked over to the National Zoo. We took the metro, which took about 40 minutes.  But it was worth it because parking is $20. The zoo is free and absolutely huge.  We only saw the birds, elephants and cheetah's and it took two hours!

They had some scary vultures,

 and very red cardinals,

 some baby ostriches, 

 and a bunch of flamingo!

 Benson loves the zoo...

 Whoa! hold on!

 One of our favorites was this one-legged bird...

 But our very most favorite was the elephants! (only because the panda exhibit was closed.)

 Fun afternoon at the zoo! We will definitely go there again soon.
