We Walk into a Bar with Rhinos

Kopje Lodge, Fresno Chaffee Zoo, Fresno, California

It was Friday night, we were listening to karaoke, and drinking a variation on Long Island Iced Tea -- you’d figure we were in a bar, right?

Turns out we were at the zoo. But like a bar, there were a variety of alcoholic beverages available, and I’m sure that your average bartender could find a number of similarities between the residents of the zoo and a number of their customers.

From the fact that we were drinking at the zoo on a Friday night, you can tell we’re beginning to need help choosing bars. If you have a bar to recommend (in California), we’d love to hear from you.

We’re also working on our book about last year’s trip to a bar in every state, so if you have opinions on what you’d like to see in the book, let us know about that too.

For now, here are some photos of animals we saw last night, along with drinks you could make named after them.
