Solar Return

Today is my 28th birthday, and as I was looking for the 'right' photo to share today, one day in particular came to mind. For my friend's 27th birthday, we packed into her Jeep Wrangler and headed to the Six Flags' Wild Safari Adventure. With a car full of snacks and her boyfriend as the designated driver, everyone else in the car took a healthy helping of mushrooms and got ready to be transported from New Jersey to the Serengeti. During our excursion, we saw animals from all around the world in symbiosis with one another, casually frolicking around the grounds. My favorite animal of the day, hands down, was the giraffes. While other animals kept their distance from us, the giraffes seemingly performed for us, hoping to get a treat from the nearby zookeepers, peeking their long necks over our car as they walked alongside us.
