CU at Zoo Lights

This evening was a special preview at Zoo Lights for alumni of the University of Colorado. As an alum, I was invited to attend. Marina was interested in going and we invited friends to go with us.

We had no trouble finding parking at the zoo. There was quite a line to get in, but it eased up as I picked up our tickets. We had hoped for small crowds, but since everyone has arrived around the same time, it was congested.

Shortly after we arrived we found where Chip the buffalo mascot was posing for pictures. Marina greeted him with a big hug. She also wanted to see Santa. That line was much longer. So, we got hot chocolate, funnel cakes and churros to snack on while we waited.

We got our photos with Santa and then spent the rest of the evening checking out the lights. This year the lights have been completely rearranged so it was fun to see the new set ups.

It took us several hours to get through the zoo and we were tired by the time we got to the front. We were all ready to go home!
