We\u2019re All Going To The Zoo \u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Callum would finally get his wish and travel on the Metro.  We were going to the Smithsonian National Zoo today and our fingers crossed we would get to see the Giant Pandas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After figuring out how to buy tickets (and what tickets to buy!) were were on our way on the Red Line heading up to Woodley Park.  One of the stops for the Zoo.  A 10 minute walk and we were at the Zoo.  Lemur feeding was on the cards at 10.30am but decided to go there via the Panda House as we thought it would be quieter first thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The baby Panda had climbed up a tree so we had a lovely glimpse of his backside!  Going inside, the Mummy Panda was happily chomping away on some Bamboo (and admittedly, the photos looked like she was a model!).  Daddy Panda was obviously in a strop as he was sat facing the wall!  It was fantastic to see as none of use had seen a real life giant Panda before.<\/p>\n\n\n
