January 16

We went on an adventure today! Ashley has been suggesting that we make a winter trip to the zoo because she learned from one of her students that the animals are much more active. The National Zoo has 7(?) new lion cubs, born in August and September, that debuted in December and I have been wanting to take Aaron to see them. So we got all bundled up and met Ashley’s friends for a very fun time. Yes, it was cold and windy, but the big cats and the pandas were very much out and about, and the lion cubs were just too cute for words. It was awesome to see the whole pride together and interacting. I think I love lions.
Here are just a couple of photos, but I got TONS of great ones. You should check out the whole album here on facebook. The link works even if you don’t use facebook.
