As a rule I am not a fan of zoos. I find them depressing and remain skeptical of their true conservation value. However! I have a 2 1/2-year-old, and she likes animals, so off we went to the National Zoo a few weekends ago. The weather was perfect - a crisp, sunny fall day - and we were in and out before the crowds arrived. We saw zebras, orangutans, gorillas and some cute but kind of odd pygmy horses from Russia. Here's a pictureof Mabel, Dylan and the gorilla. I have helpfully highlighted the gorilla for your viewing pleasure.
