One of our first Christmas events this year was Zoo Lights at the Columbia Zoo. This was the first time we had been and we had the opportunity to see it for free as we traveled through Columbia back from another art show. It was beautiful and so neat to have the experience of seeing the zoo at night with all the lights!
We arrived at the zoo a little earlier in the afternoon so we had a chance to see a few of the animals before the Zoo Lights came on and most of the animals went to bed.
We spent some time with the seals
and Bethany saw her favorite animals-turtles!
We also saw the rhinoceros and the giraffes.
Then it was time for the lights to begin to come on. This large tree had lights synchronized with a story being told at the same time!
We rarely ever have to opportunity to see it...so the kids were thrilled when we found a spot where it was snowing!! (Soap bubbles, that is!)
We walked around to see more lights
and rode the train around the zoo to see the lights too!
We enjoyed all of Zoo Lights! It was a really fun way to start off our December this year!
