Cons: Parking was rediculous. Took 20 minutes just to get to the lot half a mile away. Word of advice, on Herman Park Dr there is two lanes and the lane on the right is super long bc everyone thinks it's the correct line but it ends up merging left so you mine as well get there first. probably would have cut out 10 min. Second was the hot chocolate. We paid $5 for a hot chocolate and another $4 if you want a shot of Bailey's or peppermint schnapps. It was terrible. Turns out the cart we got it from was the culprit, we went inside the food court and theirs was yummy. Pros the lights were beautiful in many areas. Lots of concession areas and photo opportunities. We bought our tickets online so we skipped all the long lines as they were waiting in line for ticket purchase. Professional photographers at the entrance to take photos. Txu was there giving away really cute photo frames that have "zoo lights" etched so it makes a great keepsake. We bought (2) 4x6 photos of our professional pictures and it was $19.
