Zach & Hay - March 13 - Zoo

Back in DC! And Hailey's first ride on the metro.
Our adventure for today is the zoo! The zoo in DC is a Smithsonian so that means it is free! 
The weather in DC was not nearly as cold has we had experienced the last 3 days, so it was perfect day to wander the zoo.
While the weather was nicer, what we didn't know was that in the winter a lot of the animals are in their inside habitats that are not accessible to the general public. But we were determined to find some animals!


Even though Bao Bao left to go to China, there are still 3 pandas at the zoo. They are fun to watch.








After visiting the pandas we went over to the elephants exhibit and it was perfect timing as they were doing one of their shows.


Sloth






Squires
And this was the highlight of our trip to the zoo, this seal. When we came down to the exhibit there was a guy throwing his hat in the air and the seal would follow it and then do a trick. When the guy left, Hailey tried it and this seal loved her and so did the others that came down and watched her. She did this for about an hour and it was hard to take her away from her new friend.

The zoo requires a lot of walking! And someone was sure tired after our day at the zoo.
