The Houston Zoo was great. It is a beautiful zoo and the best part is that the paths are covered by tall tree or covered pathways which is best especially helpful in the summer. Also, to combat the heat they also have plenty of air conditioned buildings (reptiles or aquarium) for patrons to walk into along the path. The sea lions were the best to watch. It was soooo hot that most of the animals were inside... away from the heat.
NOTE: If you become a member of The Zoological Society of your local zoo you will either get free entry or a discounted rate on tickets at other zoos
