4th of July brought a 3-day weekend, the perfect excuse for a couple of local adventures. First stop was the Bronx Zoo. It was a lot of fun to see and learn about the animals. Our favorites included the gorillas, giraffes, tapir, and lots and lots of monkeys. There are quite a few babies at the zoo, most of whom were quite entertaining!
In case you were wondering how they do it…
Lions!
Turtles
Giraffes are kinda saggy

Rambunctious baby gorillas were so fun to watch!
Mischievous little ones
Mama is not amused.
So serious
Gorillas have big hands!
Lunchtime for the human species! I packed a healthy vegetarian picnic.

(I took so many photos from our day at the zoo, I’m breaking this post into two parts. Stay tuned for more animals!)
