Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

Grandpa Russo paid a visit this week. While he was here, we took a trip to the National Zoo.

The lions, tigers, and (panda) bears were fun for the adults, but Adam didn't seem to know what he was supposed to be looking at.


However, the aquatic life in the invertebrate house was a hit!
We all enjoyed watching the meercats and lion tamirins dart around the small mammal house.

The highlight of the trip was the butterfly room: Animals with pretty colors and brains too small to be afraid of little hands.
My personal favorite was the flamingos. Noisy, Noisy birds!

When we came home, Grandpa Russo and Adam had even more fun together. Grandpas have an extra-special source of energy, it seems.
