Arranged to meet Steven (a friend of mine back from IL) at the zoo today, and he brought another NASA intern with him. It was 105 degrees, we were there for just about 4 hours, and I forgot to wear sunscreen...whoops, I turned at least 10 shades darker that day.
The zoo was...decent, considering it was free. Between Lincoln Park and Brookfield though, I've seen all there is to see at a zoo, so it wasn't that special. The little tamarins were cool and the reptile house reminded me so strongly of the Wildlife Discovery Center (that I volunteer at during the school year).
On my way home, I walked to Whole Foods, where I got my first taste of fruit in 2 weeks. It's been too long...
In total today, I walked 8 miles. And it was hot and sunny. Exhausting day though, and it didn't go by wasted. There's so much in DC left to see though!
Pictures here.
