I love the Zoo! On this visit I brought my daughter's friend and her children for a relaxing afternoon. We live nearby so no pressure to see everything in one day which I think can ruin it for many people as their children get tired and cranky going from exhibit to exhibit. The Zoo is a Massive place with SO much to see and experience that I highly recommend going at least a few times in season. At the very least, make a plan to gently stroll around or decide which animals or exhibits you really want to see and spend the majority of your time truly enjoying those locations. We stopped in the Children's Zoo for a while and afterward they wanted to stay around the large rhino sculptures outside Zoo Center and play which was relaxing. Then a face painting for the four year old then home for dinner. Easy and pleasant afternoon.
Did I mention how much I love the zoo?
