School Lights

I was invited to attend their private event at the zoo holiday lights through the university I graduated from. We went last year with Mr. Chuck and Miss Judy. This year everyone wanted to go again.

We learned a few lessons from last year and arrived a bit later. By doing this we avoided the long line to get in. Our first stop was picking up hot chocolate and a snack of popcorn and cookies.

We were really close to where Santa was taking photos with school mascot. The line looked long, but it moved quickly. So Marina and I went through it. Then we went to look at all the lights. Every year the lights are arranged differently. We really liked the way they were set up this year.

As we went through the zoo, Marina participated in a scavenger hunt to find all the symbols hidden throughout the zoo. We compared notes with others along the way, but we still missed two of them. Even so, Marina got a candy cane for her efforts at the end.

Once we got through the zoo, we headed home. It had been a long day. We were all tired, but it had been a lot of fun!
