We were at the National Zoo in Washington D.C. and Nate was starting to become a very tired little boy. We were near Amazonia a part of the zoo wear small animals and reptiles are kept. I gave Nate my camera and he was off through Amazonia asking "Are there snakes? Are there snakes? I'm afraid of snakes." Then he continued rushing through Amazonia taking pictures of anything that interested him. Nate was disgusted by the tarantula and all the other creepy critters. After he had searched the in tier floor, Nate wanted to see more so he ran down the steps in to a more rain forest like part of the exhibition he saw what he described as bad butterflies, spiders and cockroaches. There were signs that said stay five feet away there are monkeys in trees. Bats! Bats! Bats! Nate started to yell. I saw no bats but could see the flash of a camera and Nate saying chiching as he took a picture of a strawberry poison frog. Then he looked in a microscope and was disappointed in the next few rooms until he found some bone models. Nate went back to the frogs expressing that they are his favorite, then headed for the EXIT.

Tell Nate that I am with him on the snakes(!), and I love the pictures!
