I did mention in part 1 that we got lost trying to find the Zoo. We somehow managed to get turned around in the Zoo and never made it to the top half. I am not going to admit to being lost in the Zoo, but my husband would tell you so.
Due to our parking situation we entered the Zoo from the bottom entrance. The Zoo is a giant hill. Take my word for it. We ended up leaving the Zoo from the bottom entrance. The rest of the photos are dealing with exiting the zoo and trying to leave D.C.
For my chocolate loving friends, you will be pleased to note, that the Zoo has an M&M vending machine. Next to that is the Dippin’ Dots freeze dried ice cream. I tried that once. It is yummy but very odd eating ice cream that reminds you of styro foam beads.
You will also note the rather tired look on my daughters face. She thought we were lagging behind and she was…..tired!

This old girl is actually 30 years old. In captivity, they can live up to 35 years. In the wild they may only get to about 20 years of age. She was donated to the Zoo by the Dept of Navy. She was all ready trained to throw a frisbie and fetch. She left the stage though and didn’t stay around much to play with the spectators. Her partner was swimming around and showing off for us.
