The Tisch Family Zoo in Jerusalem

On our day off this week we took two buses to the Tisch Family Zoo on the other side of Jerusalem.  We had been told that this was one of the cleanest zoos in the world.  We were not lied to!  The Zoo was incredibly clean.  Our venture out was an incredibly relaxing day.  Well... there was the lengthy bus ride... we did take a taxi back!  Some of the animals were native to Israel.

 This one, Hylobates Syndactylus, was not one of the native animals.


We took Carly's friend, Flat Stanley, along with us.  He had as much fun as we did.

I don't care what you say, THAT is a snake!

the Zoo is located in a beautiful area.

a Jewish chicken?  I don't think so... but then again, we don't know what it is other than a pretty bird!

 

 

 

 

 

Noah's Ark?

 

and even deer... no hunting season though.  Sorry Tim, leave the guns at home.  We had a wonderful relaxing day and decided that when the kids visit next year, they must go to the zoo.
