Lauren had Thursday through Monday of Easter Weekend off from school for "spring break." We had originally planned to go to the zoo on Thursday but our plans got changed and we ended up going on Good Friday. Wow, what a disaster that was! All the parking lots were full before 10 am and we had to drive around for over an hour to find a place to park in Forest Park. We ended up in the Muny parking lot which meant a lot of walking for the kiddos. They did great though!
The zoo was so packed. I had never been there when it was like that. We only got through four animal exhibits because of the long lines, etc. Of course we had to ride the carasoul and the train because a trip to the zoo is never complete without those! So we didn't see many animals but had a lot of fun regardless. Despite the crowds, the kids were happy and enjoyed taking it all in. Its always better when you are with friends too!
I did make a mental note to not go back on a holiday!
