Guppy Gala

Yesterday we spent the evening at the zoo for the annual Guppy Gala. The weather was grey, but mild and luckily the rain held off. It was quite similar to Boo at the Zoo without costumes, but in our opinion, even better because of more activities and smaller crowd.


The zoo provided its guests with Subway for dinner. And then we hit the array of candy, ice cream, and snack stations.

And Simone's favorite part was the inflatable playground. We spent quite a while on these.

With a little help from staff, she even scaled the climbing wall to come down the slide.

Here she is a little uncertain of the guys on stilts.

Around the lion exhibit, they had games and activities which held Simone's attention more than the actual lions. After she played the ring toss, pin the spots on the cheetah, and the fishing pond, she picked blue and orange dots for her hair at that silly station. I was thrilled... not.

Mom and Dad, on the other hand, enjoyed the lion pride more. It was getting dark by this time, so the video quality isn't very good, sorry.

Overall a really nice time that we all enjoyed. We'll be back next year for sure.
