Apologies for taking this OT but, Don since you have just been there, what's the place like as a place to visit? Been thinking of taking Logan but heard conflicting reports on the quality of the place, some say its nice, some say the place smells like the animals aren't being well looked after.
One day I hope I'll get to take him to the
zoo that's about 5 miles from my mother's house but the airlines are doing their best to make that prohibitively expensive.
I'm not a Zoo expert, in fact I don't like zoos. I hate to see anything, especially something as regal as Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Etc...locked up. Just my feelings. I do know about farms though.
There are some places that smell like a barnyard. That doesn't mean the animals aren't being cared for, it just means there are large animals living there. My impression was that they were extremely well cared for.
There were a lot of animals and the observation decks are well designed.
The place is clean and well maintained. The employees were College Students I think..polite and intelligent.
There is a train and a chair lift. I took the chair lift twice. Once with Jane, then the second time hanging out of it for better shots (which no one said much about).
He can actually hand feed the Giraffes.
I think your son would have a ball.
