Five photos from July 4 in Peoria IL

For strange reasons we decided to travel to Central Illinois for Independence Day. Most things were closed of course, but we did manage to make go of it.

I’ve never tried a “PBR” and I had no idea that it was a huge part of Peoria. They maintain this famous bar. The bartender was engaging. She made the first part of the evening excellent.
[CxT] Roasting Company. ❤️ expert baristas.
This Mandrill said, “you are a baboon and I am not.” The small Peoria Zoo has a few solid exhibits.
Thyme Kitchen + Bar – a quirky place on the riverfront. Perfect for lunch.
This kangaroo was so ready to start his weekend.
