| - My husband and I decided to check out Zoo Lights because we didn't really know what to do in Arizona when we were visiting for a few days. Honestly, we were pretty bored in Arizona... and Zoo Lights was pretty much the highlight of our trip.
Anyways, when we finally arrived around 6 pm (right when they start, and go until 10 pm) we really didn't know what to expect but were pretty impressed with all of the lights when we entered the parking lot, looking for parking (which there is plenty of by the way, but don't expect a spot right next to the entrance with all the other people wanting to check this out).
I loved seeing all of the lights on the trees, aisles, walkways, buildings, etc. I also really loved the lights that moved and made it look like there was a tiger running in a circle or a bear moving his arms up and down. Honestly, this was a really fun little place to be for holiday lights (even if you aren't 12 and under).
The majority of the animals were sleeping when we arrived (well they were probably up all day entertaining people... stars deserve to sleep), but we still did see a few animals (but forgot which animals they were at the moment). There is the sting ray area where you can touch the creatures in the touch tank, for a small fee, that are very much awake and moving if you want to watch that (which is near the entrance of the park).
Honestly, paying only a mere $10 (each) was a steal (parking was free when we went) because it gave us something to do, helped us get into the holiday spirit and made for some great pictures and gave our eyes and brains a dazzling visual appeal. I don't really see myself coming back to Phoenix anytime soon, but if I ever come back and it's around November or December, then I would make sure to stop by Zoo Lights again.
