Great zoo with a great view!
Thursday, August 11, 2005
The zoo has all the animals you'd expect to see and several ones that you wouldn't! Rhinos, hippos, giraffes, bears, elephants, birds, reptiles, snakes, monkeys, gorillas... The exhibits are neat. I especially like the monkey house (though it smells pretty bad...).
It's built on a mountain, so a lot of the walking is up and down rather steep inclines or stairs. Good exercise right? Go a couple times a year to keep up with the new exhibits.
And the view of the Colorado Springs is quite nice from way up there. Fresh air :) ...(except in the monkey house ;)
