Zoolights

This year was the first time I've ever gone to the Zoolights display at the National Zoo in Washington D.C. I mean, I've been to the National Zoo before but not for the Zoolights. Groupon and living social deals have a way of making my family go places. Anyway, the deal was for free parking since parking is expensive probably to offset the fact that the zoo itself is actually free. If you have ever gone to the National Zoo, you will know that getting there is quite a hassle. It's still a bit of a walk from the closest metro stop. Driving there is kind of terrifying if you take Rock Creek, which is like the winding road of death. Taking Connecticut is kind of annoying also since you end up going through Dupont Circle and the National Mall area. But it was whatever to me since I won't be the one driving.

Our deal included tickets for tubing, the train, and the carousel. Before any of the animal attractions closed, I took my brother to see the pandas and the reptile house. We didn't spend too long there. Then we went to go eat dinner at Ted's Bulletin in Mosaic District Mosaic District was also nicely decorated for Christmas.
