Boo at the Zoo







October 23rd we went to Boo at the Zoo. The kids got to play games, make crafts, go to treat stations, ride the train, and see some of the animals. While on the train, the camels got on the tracks and would not move. The guy had to keep ringing the bell and inching the train as close to them as he could, but it took like 5 minutes to get them out of the way. It was very funny...everyone cheered the "engineer" when the camels finally moved and we could continue our train ride. The lemurs were very active during the train ride. All of the businesses that had candy stations set up, gave out the really cheap candy. Don't think it was worth $10/person, but this is Ashlyn's first experience with Halloween, so we're doing many events that fall around it so she can truly experience it. She loved dressing up as the pretty pink princess and Kaylyn loved being Cleopatra.

  1. Wow looks like a lot of fun. We might do something like this next weekend at our Zoo if it doesn't rain. Right now it's pouring down rain with no end in site.
