Mr. Mateo Goes to Washington

So a few weeks ago I had to go on a business trip to Chicago. Instead of Mateo staying home and wondering where I was, he and Papi decided to go visit Tia Raqui-Caqui and Tio Jon in Washington D.C. Since I wasn't there most of what is listed below is hearsay, but I trust my sources.
Tia and Tio pose with Mateo in front of the Capitol


Mateo explores one of Papi's favorite places...the Botanical Gardens


From what I hear, some of the plant life suffered under curious fingers that loved to pluck


Papi poses with Mateo


In front of the Capitol again...Mateo is exhausted at the thought of how much work has to go on in there

Cheesy smile for the camera


The crew heads for the zoo. This is the Cheetah exhibit which Mateo did not want to leave because he thought it was Baby Jaguar


Tia poses in front of the elephants


Mateo grips on to Tio Jon as they ride the DC Metro

Tia embraces her inner child while Mateo plays follow the leader
