bronx zoo
Ashley and I went to the Bronx Zoo yesterday. It was a great day for a zoo visit because it was relatively cool out and overcast, so the animals were out and about. This tiger walked right up to the glass separating us from the tiger exhibit.

The Bronx Zoo is wonderful. We spent hours at the zoo yesterday and probably only saw 1/3 to 1/2 of the zoo. It’s alright though… we bought a zoo membership so that we can go back whenever we want. The membership also includes admission to the Central Park Zoo, the Queens Zoo, the Prospect Park Zoo, and the New York Aquarium.
We also discovered the best way to travel in New York… the express bus! It’s a $5 ride from Madison Square Park (26th and Madison) to the Bronx Zoo on a posh tour bus. Honestly, it beats the subway, taxis, and regular buses.
