| - So my friend from school and I decided randomly this past week that we wanted to go to the zoo, so we hopped into his Mercedes and made the little trip.
Considering it was Saturday, it was extremely busy and we had to park in the area where the school busses normally park, which isn't a big deal, but it is a tid bit of a walk. We had passes, so we scooted our way past the entire line (which is pretty sweet, because you don't have to wait in line by all of the kids who are screaming and yelling because they're not getting to see the animals yet).
The zoo isn't too huge, but we spent a good hour and a half there looking at all of the animals.
My favorite exhibit is the giraffe one, and it is extremely cool that you can do the "Giraffe Encounter" where you get to get up close and personal with them.
The food and the drinks are overpriced... I mean, seriously? $3.79 for a sno-cone? However, I don't blame you, Phoenix Zoo, all businesses pertaining to amusement tend to jack their prices up 500%.
Zoolights is really awesome. If you get the chance to go during the holidays, make sure you do it. It is absolutely beautiful and it is a lot of fun to go with friends or family!
