Sonia watched carefully and on the way back recalled bear going "up" that morning. Good memory!
Bronx zoo is super cheap but you have to pay additional fees for visiting special exhibits. We are members so we were spared this burden. We visited all we could in one day, even going on "skyfari".
Butterflies were flying and eating nectar with music of Chopin in the air.
Sonia rode an insect carousel for the first time. Jeremy called this insect a cockroach. I checked it with a guide and it was a valiant Philadelphia firefly.
Jeremy took a turn on a more recognazable bug...
Children's zoo was three times bigger than ours. It even had crocks. Sonia was scared and didn't want to go near one. She is on this picture however.
Crawling through the log.
Making funny faces while in the log.
Tigers!! I have never seen them this close.
Unlike San Diego zoo, these tigers loved moving and playing around.
They had a pool with fish. Sonia kept making "ooooh" noises and pointing out big fish in the water. We hoped tigers would go for a swim but they just roamed around.
We escaped the worst of vapors that day by spending a whole day at the zoo and coming home late at night. Our building was sprayed for roaches that day.

the tigers at every zoo I've ever been to are always asleep, how neat that they were walking around and so close!
That's so great that you went there, it's a really awesome zoo. You have some excellent pictures, I love the polar bear!
