A bit too hot for the animals to be out this evening, I think we should have followed their example! The first animal is a Red Panda.

Washington National Zoo





I went to the zoo this morning for a little while. The zoo is huge and it was really hot so I only got to see a small part of it. It's not far from our hotel so I will be going back again (and again).

From St. John's to Toronto to Washington, DC





A long day of travel, but worth it for a vacation. Some photos taken out the window of the plane on our flight today. While I am away I'll be editing photos on a laptop so the quality might not be as good.
