On Monday, Zak and I headed out for a trip to the Bronx Zoo. We both absolutely love the zoo, and after realizing we hadn't been all summer, we put the trip high on our to do list. It was kind of the perfect zoo trip. The weather was cloudy and cool but not rainy, it wasn't crowded at all, and we got to walk around almost the whole zoo and see nearly everything (I was wearing my pedometer, we walked about 7 miles total!). I have way too many photos of animals and myself, so "bear" with me (puns!). Highlights were a butterfly landing on my hand in the butterfly garden, seeing a very sleepy tiger up close, and making a new peacock friend (see the last photo).
(This turtle had somehow managed to perch himself on this little statue of a dragonfly, making himself look like a part of the scenery!)
Until tomorrow,
Nicole

Oh, I love going to the zoo! (I visited an aquarium yesterday, and I spent an embarrassing amount of time watching the otters. haha!) You look crazy adorable in these photos, and I kind of want to steal your purse... The print is just too good!
ReplyDeleteCutest outfit EVERR! & I love the hat :) For me, I never know how to keep it on my head tilted lol
ReplyDeleteThat bag is so lovely! Looks like an amazing day, I love tigers.... xo
ReplyDeleteI love visiting our local zoo, and your outfit is just perfect, so sweet & perfectly relaxed. Love. xo veronika
ReplyDeleteOh man, I bet that peacock is PISSED the way you and your purse totally stole the scene for that photo. Seriously that gorgeous bird has NOTHING on the perfect plumes on your bag!
ReplyDeletei love your top! and the peacock creeping behind you
ReplyDeleteSO many things to tell you! First, your blog layout is stunning. Its absolutely gorgeous. Second, your hair is the loveliest shade, I've been out of the blogging world for awhile, but did you color it? It really suits you. Third, your hat, I'm swooning. AND FOURTH the bear is SO cute. Love bears.
ReplyDeleteOf course you can't have summer without visiting the zoo at least once! I like the documentation of the day. The gopher(?) has the best expression on his face. Sometimes I wonder if animals really know what's up and they perform for humans or they just act like that all the time. Hmm...
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit shocked at how close that peacock got to you. I guess he mistook your purse for a friend and thought he would wander over and meet it! lol
This sounds like a lovely date!
ReplyDeleteI like the whole outfit, so perfect for a casual date...and that purse! It's love at first sight.
