Bronx Zoo ****


So on Sunday we headed on up to the Bronx Zoo. Overall it was VERY baby friendly (as it should be!)



I was very surprised about how many benches and seating areas there were through out the entire zoo! There were SOOOO many places that we could sit and rest while the rest of our group was still enjoying an exhibet.

Some of the areas were "Stroller Free Zones" which was annoying since DS is 20lbs but they did provide a "Stroller parking Area" in each of these areas.

A few of the animal houses did not have any sort of air conditioning or ventalation. This was inconvient. Another place that did not have any venelation was the bathrooms! I did not decide to go in and see if they had changing areas since it was so dang hot in there and there were lines. I forgot to ask my friend who went in if they had them or not.

I ended up changing DS in the petting zoo area on the bench. And noone said anything to be so they must not have cared lol!

Ok so to the pros and cons:
Pros:
Lots of benches/seating
Story time for the kids
stroller parking areas
wide walkways

Cons:
Some unairconditioned animal houses
small selection in gift shops
unvenilated bathrooms

Overall I give the Bronx Zoo **** 4 stars. I would have gave them 5 if it wasn't for the bathrooms!
