Boo At The Zoo

I didn’t take many photos - mostly because we were moving in a car in the dark - but I wanted to make a post to tell you about the Boo at the Zoo event. It was pretty cool! Upon arrival they give you a big bag of candy to eat while you ride in your car drive through the Milwaukee County Zoo! We didn’t see any animals (we didn’t expect to.) However the entire drive is lined with lit Jack-O-Lanterns. There must’ve been hundreds of them! Fresh pumpkins with real candles! They also have different not-scary Halloween displays and lights. We saw a “witch” on stilts. I loved seeing a live band playing!

My kids enjoyed stopping at one of the three optional snack stops. You pull to the side and a person takes your order. Then you pull forward and pay and receive your food. You never leave the car! The kids got a brat and cheese curds. Only in Wisconsin!

I’d recommend this for families with younger kids!
