Who would want to go to the zoo in the dark when it’s raining, just four days before Christmas?
That’s what we did last night and I would love to make it an annual event. Although I think snow would be better than rain for next year.
A tourism website described it as experiencing the “soft glow of a million twinkling lights.”
It was amazing. I have never seen so many lights all in one place. The zoo is fairly wooded and every tree was strung with hundreds of lights, with lights on all the buildings, and lots of separate light displays set up along the walkways. It was truly beautiful and very festive.
The best news is that our tickets are good through December 30. So, I’m hoping we can go again!
Afterwards Kevin’s family came over for hot chocolate and shortbread. Actually, I’d never done it before but I made homemade marshmallows. They were very yummy and surprisingly easy to make. I’m going to see if I can freeze them successfully. If they’re still good after being frozen I’m going to consider making them in bulk to enjoy all winter long. Yum.

That sounds like fun! I really like the Indianapolis Zoo. Did you get to see any animals or were they all put away?
We saw some, including the Dophin show, but not as many as we thought we might. You could always go earlier in the day and see more animals.
