Also on inauguration night, I went to see Animal Collective play a gig (starting the tour for their new album).
Animal Collective, if you don't know them, started off as a kind of noise rock experimental band. They still play around with noises, but there are irrepressible melodies just bursting to get out from within. Still, they have always felt like such an obscure band to me - like they would have such limited appeal and I had found something truly my own. It was strange then, to be surrounded by hundreds of others who were sharing this secret. It was all of ours, but it still felt like we were keeping it to ourselves.
Highly recommended show if you get the chance.

Day two of our trip was a visit to the Oregon Zoo, which the kids loved and was much cooler than I expected. We arrived right when the zoo opened, and a lot of the animals were still sleeping -- but this elephant was out and about, looking for food.
Part of my 1/365 project: 1 photo per day for 365 days.
