Monkeying Around


We took Abby to the National Zoo for the first time today. Joe, Stacy, and Ryan came with us. Since parking at the zoo is roughly $10 and we had to take separate vehicles, we decided to ride the metro to Woodley Park. (Note for next time: Get off at Cleveland Park when going to the zoo and leave from Woodley Park. This provides a downhill walk going to the zoo and a downhill walk leaving the zoo!)

This silly, frolicking, agile animal delighted Abby and got her really excited about being at the zoo. Up until the small mammal house, Abby really had no interest and showed no understanding of what we were doing at the zoo.

^At the small mammal house, watching the meerkats watching us!


^Prairie dogs!! Reminds me of being back in Colorado. :)


^"Isn't the zoo fun, Ryan?"


^Quenching some thirst as we get ready to leave at the end of the day.
