PHILADELPHIA -- Sunday was a great day for the Shore, but Erica Lapid, a resident of Somers Point, did the reverse pleasure commute.
She came to Philly with one purpose in mind: to feed the giraffes at the Philadelphia Zoo’s newest exhibit, Giraffe Encounter.
“She’s so cute!” Lapid cooed, as Stella, the zoo’s giraffe matriarch, lowered her long neck to nibble on an outstretched branch of acacia leaves. “Good job!”
