When we finished the gallery we inquired our way (past Gen. Grant's old headquarters) to the "Zoo" car out Connecticut Ave. and had a long ride to the heights of Chevy Chase (or near it) and the National Park where we walked down stairs and up hills and over bridges and saw some lovely bears catching peanuts and climbing trees (I took their pictures under difficulty!) And some entrancing leopards like Zo & Zen and a noble tiger who insisted on posing - but not in the sun - also some lions. We were enjoying the monkey house (also snakes! and alligators (a baby on it's mother's back) when the time came to close it - so afterward confined ourselves to wolves, prairie dogs, camels, buffaloes (a picture!) yaks &c. It really is a fine Zoo. The best I've seen I think - certainly with the most beautiful surroundings of hill and dale. We came out another way "feeling our way" again. Took a crowded Chevy Chase car a little way and then another car. Along Rock Creek bridge and to "U" St. (I think).
