PutMeInCoach Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 I was at the Cincinnati Zoo yesterday. It was a good time, not as packed as I expected for a Saturday. All of the animals were out , only downer was that the cats were sleeping but the polar bears were putting on a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KYNINERSFAN Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 With gas as high as it is and everything else I would only guess vacations will be pretty sparse this year. Should have no congestion problems at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockmom Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Just found out that me & a few of my family members will be heading up to the Louisville Zoo! After reading all these posts, I've tried to get them to take a trip to the Cinci one instead . My 4 year old nephew will be going so it should be a fun trip. We'll be heading up on the 31st. It'll be about a 3 hour ride. Any suggestions as to which are the top animal attractions??? We have a new baby elephant! I can't say there's "bad" exhibit at the Louisville Zoo, but I really like the orangutans and the monkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read about that...There's aslo one that is turning 1 by the name of Scotty, correct? The Zoo is also home to Tony Stewart's former pet monkey, Mojo. rockmom, do you work at the Zoo????

Cleaning up bird poop just wasn't what I wanted as a career, though. :lol: Maybe if I could have graduated to giraffe poop, I might have stayed.

ScarHeel Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Just got back from Louisville about 15 minutes ago. The orangutans and the monkeys were my favorite to watch. They were extremely funny. The Zebras & Giraffes were pretty neat also. Anywho, I have to attend a graduation tomorrow/this afternoon so I'll have more detail later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 Our Grandkids will be up soon, their Daddy is bringing his girls up this Saturday, we will have them for a week,my wife and I will be off next week (vacation week) and we promise them a trip to the Zoo,but with gas prices up, we may now go to the Louisville Zoo, it will save us about 80 miles round trip It a win win situation, and from what I have heard and read from this thread, Louisville has a really nice Zoo. PS,ScarHeel,glad you had a great time at the Zoo.:thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the mathemagician Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Can zoo tickets be purchased ahead of time? I'd hate to arrive only to find out the zoo was closed for repairs, like Clark Griswald found out at Wally World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kystraydog Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Louisville Zoo is WAY too hilly!! Love the cincy zoo best but it is hilly as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaViking Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Haven't visited the Louisville zoo so I have no idea what they offer for shade. My motto is to get there early when it is hot and humid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
