Today we set off from Roosevelt Island after a Starbucks stop. We took a couple of trains and made it to the Bronx, a borough we haven't spent much time in before. Wednesday is bargain day at the Bronx Zoo, so for a mere $30 both of us had total experience tickets for the zoo. We saw some amazing animals like tigers, a snow leopard, a red panda, Indian rhinoceros, elephants, peacocks and peafowl, deer of all kinds, and bears too. Gorillas, monkeys, birds, leopards, taipiers, lemurs, giraffes, and wild dogs were just some of the awesome animals we saw. It was a beautiful day and the zoo was so well laid out! We loved the shady paths, the variety of animals and plant life , and the snacks! The zoo was just fantastic. Dean bought a new shirt at the zoo and we got a new tote bag to the support the Conservancy. After a long day walking around the zoo we got in line for the Dinosaur Safari which, while cheesy, was super awesome! The animatronics were very good and the pictures were so much fun to take.
As we came back home for the evening, we stopped by a cupcake shop Amanda talked about a couple of days ago and bought super yummy mini cupcakes for dessert after games! We played a new game after the girls went to bed called Frag which is way fun!
We had a fantastic day and are so happy we decided to go to the zoo today!!
