How many of you have ever visited The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore? If you’ve never been there…let me tell you, it’s a beautiful zoo!
The zoo has just about every animal species that you would ever want to see. They have lions, tigers, bears, zebra, monkeys, chimps, giraffes, ostrich, all kinds of different snakes & reptiles, penguins, fish and tons of different birds! I was pleasantly surprised when we visited at the variety of animals that they had!
We are really lucky to live in south central Pennsylvania which puts us within driving distance of all major cities in our area. We can get to New York City in 2 1/2 hours, Philadelphia in 1 1/2 hours, Pittsburgh in 4 hours, Baltimore in 1 1/2 hours, Atlantic City in 3 hours and so forth.
Today as part of the weekly “Almost” Wordless Wednesday feature I’m sharing two photos with you that I took at The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore. I have to admit…I love watching the primates and the big cats…the best!
So…do you have any favorite zoos? When you visit a zoo…what kind of animals do you like to see?
When I was younger we loved to go to the Bronx Zoo. I love the big cats, the monkeys and the sea mammals the most., but I just enjoy the entire experience. I have never been to the Baltimore Zoo and it looks like a very nice zoo to visit.
Lion & tigers & bears…oh, my! (Sorry, I just had to go there! Lol.) I haven’t been to the Maryland Zoo. but it looks like a lot of fun, especially with kids!
I’ve never been to Baltimore, so I can’t say I’ve seen this zoo. But we always used to go to the Bronx Zoo, when I was a kid – with my family and on class trips. We lived in the Bronx – not far from there. The Botanical Gardens is right there, too. I think my favorite part was “The World of Darkness” – where you could see nocturnal animals like bats that normally only come out at night. That, and the Reptile House. The Reptiles House had a tropical thunderstorm. Love the zoo! (The Central Park zoo was always very small).
