If you really want to get a sense of Durham, check out the Farmers Market and Food Truck Rodeo on Saturday morning. For a true Durham experience, pick up a Locopop and look out for our local celebrity, the Hedgehog Guy.
Duke Lemur Center
3705 Erwin Road, Durham, NC 27705, (919) 401-7240
The largest (and cutest!) collection of lemurs outside of Madagascar. You'll have to make a reservation pretty far in advance, but we think it's worth the visit just to see Grendel, the aye-aye.
A dog-friendly, neighborhood brewery with board games and ping pong--one of our regular spots. If you like IPAs, try the Rocket Science; it's Adam's favorite.
