Favorite Photo Friday: Spooktacular 2013!

We have had a zoo pass at the Jacksonville Zoo for three years now but we have never attended Spooktacular. I just didn't have a lot of interest since we still had to pay for it. We finally decided to go. It was INSANELY crowded though. People everywhere, cutting me off because I had a stroller, and etc. THAT part was bothersome but oh well. Also, Brayden KNOWS the zoo so he was upset he couldn't play on the park and etc. :X Other than that stuff we had a great time. I loved all the different exhibits. I didn't take a ton of pictures of the characters because everyone was taking photos with them already. Plus Brayden isn't a good poser.

This is all the stuff they had:

Charlie Brown's Pumpkin Patch
The Fairgrounds with bounce houses and a giant inflatable slide
The Enchanted Forest
Nightmare before Christmas
Pirates Cove
DJ's spinning kid-friendly Halloween music
Special Spooktacular food menus in each of the Zoo's two restaurants
Jack o'lanterns galore
Select animal exhibits open including giraffes, bobcats, alligators, jaguars, and reptiles and primates in the Lost Temple
Candy stations throughout the Zoo
Scare Zones! The Witch's Castle, The Greenhouse of the Living Dead and The Forest of No Return (not recommended for children under the age of 10)

It was so much fun! We didn't go through the scare zones though. Didn't want Brayden to get upset. If you're in the area definitely go visit! The last days are 25-31st so, hurry hurry!
