Entertainment & Activities
We have been members at this zoo for a number of years and we sometimes end up going once a week. Never seem to get old! It is a great destination in winter to absorb the moist, warm air in the tropical areas of the zoo. Beautiful flower gardens and exciting dinosaur exhibits in the summer.
