On Streets We Call The Zoo
With the first season of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic complete, I suddenly find myself facing the harsh reality of summer with nary a saucer-eyed equine to soften the blow. Rather than take to my temporary return to mental maturity quickly, I decided to act like a kid a little longer and visit the National Zoo on Mother’s Day. It was crowded and warm, but after walking around the paddocks for several hours, I can safely say that, if nothing else, the National Zoo has magnificent sweet potato fries.
Okay, fine, I suppose it was fun to see lots of rare animals and read little tidbits about them. There is nothing, however, that can disguise the simple fact that most animals are just incredibly boring. Truly, some of the most fun I had that day was watching the squirrels and sparrows bouncing around amongst the crowd.
Oh well. Here have some photos. (Note: Not shown are several photos I took with my 3DS within the reptile and small mammal houses, which, I might add, look awesome!)

Fun Fact: “Maintenance” is zoo code for “escaped animal”. Don’t tell anyone!

To hell with giant pandas! I want to go back to the red panda paddock.
