Watch Pandas Play In The Snow At National Zoo In DC: Video
Mei Xiang and Bei Bei spent Wednesday morning enjoying the snow, and it was all captured on video.

WASHINGTON, DC -- There's nothing more adorable than pandas frolicking in the snow, and fortunately for us, there's video of exactly that at the National Zoo in D.C. after Wednesday's snowfall.
Mei Xiang and Bei Bei were captured on video playing in the snow Wednesday at the zoo. Video is embedded below.
The zoo used the video to promote Saturday's Giant Panda Housewarming Celebration, which is free to the public and will kick off a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9 a.m.
