When I was a kid, my parents would take me to the National Zoo quite a bit. We would often go in the fall, winter and early spring when there were no crowds of tourists.

When it was cold, the animals went inside their little shelters or the large "houses," except one group . . .

 

[snowbear154 84]

. . . the Polar Bears. They would swim in the icy water and play in the cold air. They really enjoyed themselves and out on a good show for me (I was a little kid, remember).

So I like polar bears.

^ I wonder how their reception was.

It's getting late

so I really should pack it in.

Six comes early and the kitties can get awful cranky if they don't get fed.

And a cranky kitty is dangerous - they have pointy parts.
