Weekend and winner of Milk giveaway

I hope you had a great weekend! Martin and I had our annual visit to the Bronx Zoo to celebrate Spring coming! Its such a great time there if you get a chance to go. There were lots of tourists and kids from different clubs visiting. We saw a polar bear, lots of monkeys, and caught a glimpse of the gorillas. We even saw some lions! It looked like all the animals were staying on top of their sunny hills away from the windows and the fence, so a few were more difficult to see. One way to save $ going the zoo is to bring your own lunch and water! We did that and the entrance fee was well worth it! On Wednesdays the Bronx Zoo is even free to enter! Another way to save, that I'm thinking about doing in the fall, is to purchase a membership with the Wildlife Conservation Society. Its a great organization that contributes to wildlife and allows you to purchase a membership. The 129$ family year long membership for 2 adults and as many children under 18 as you'd like, includes parking passes, free entrance to the NY Aquarium in Coney Island (which I absolutely love!), free entrance to the Bronx Zoo, 16 free attraction tickets and Wildlife Conservation Society tshirts! Not bad right? A year long worth of fun stuff to do! Either way the Bronx Zoo is definetly worth a visit if you get a chance!

And the winner of the Pour One More Milk giveaway is Comment # 2 Pam! If the winner doesn't respond within 48 hours, I will pick another winner using random.org.

Congratulations Pam!! I'll send you an email shortly!

  3. I wish we lived near a zoo! I mean, we do, but it's like over an hour away. So maybe we don't. Anyway. I want to go to NY and the Bronx Zoo. Sounds like a fabulous deal!!

  5. Those season passes are the way to go. I wonder if my zoo does that. Worth looking into.

  6. Came over from Lourie's place! I totally agree with you on bringing your own food the zoo. Lunches there are not that good anyhow and way overpriced!
