I have just realized that I have visited 4 zoos and 3 museums in 3 months. And that’s record-breaking because I don’t remember visiting 2 zoos and 2 museums in Malaysia in the last 5 years, LOL. Now, I have always been a “museum person”, though I’d never call myself a “zoo person”.
I wished that the state of zoos and museums in Malaysia was in better shape so that it would be a pleasant trip for foreigners who visit our country. Otherwise there would not be any reason why they should visit our zoos and museums!
Anyway, I am not going to document all my visits to the zoos and museums because frankly, the things that we see in such places are similar. But I have uploaded my pictures into my (ever-expanding) Flickr account, so you are most welcome to check them out:
Zoos:
- Santa Barbara Zoo @ Santa Barbara, CA
- Cape May County Zoo @ Stone Harbor, NJ
- Bronx Zoo @ Bronx, NY
- Philadelphia Zoo @ Philadelphia, PA
Museums:
- Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History @ Santa Barbara, CA
- American Museum of Natural History @ New York, NY
- Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum @ Springfield, IL
Are you a zoo person? Or a museum person?
We prefer museums, but zoos are great when you have kids along with you.
How was the Lincoln Library and Museum? We’re heading to Wisconsin in a few weeks and we’ll be going through Springfield.
my goodness, i can’t remember the last time i stepped inside a museum or a zoo…
The zoo’s in england are a bit rubbish, i have visited a zoo in san diego and that was awesome, why is it that when it comes to attractions and such that england lack in this department..
I would narrow it down to art museums. I do love art museums in particular. I can just get lost in installations, paintings and the tutorials that go along with them. I think it’s the subjective view of what’s going on at a certain point in history (or that person’s life as history) that I find intriguing. :)
Enjoy!
definitely a zoo person! ;) welcome back dear…
