National Zoo
In another effort to visit the most interesting places in DC before moving to Richland, we went to the National Zoo. It was two days before Tai Shan turned one, so we went to wish him a happy birthday. Apparently the poor panda was sick of people, he went up on a tree and didn't care about the paparazzi. While the mother was sleeping, the father put up a really amusing scratching show, then dissapeared. They had a few kitties there: the cheetah were intrigued by the sound of a lawn mower, the lio was bored and the tiger was furious, walking left and right.
