Zoo Boo

Last Friday we got free tickets to the Zoo Boo from LeBonheur, who sponsored the whole thing, and the three of us went that night. Drew, although disappointed that most animals were not on display, had a blast and wore his Thomas the Train costume. His night was made before we even entered when he saw the statue of the Lion outside had a ribbon of courage around its neck and the Scarecrow and Tin Man by its side. Too bad the excerpts from The Wizard of Oz were performed the weekend before at the Zoo Boo. There was also a Glenda, the Good Witch, as we went into the zoo and plenty of Wicked Witches around. Drew got to go trick-or-treating around at the candy stations and we rode the train, which was a little haunted, but not that scary. We also went on a hay ride and saw the few animals that were open. We had never been and were really surprised by how many people were there. Before we left Drew knocked on the Tin Man and reenacted the scene where Dorothy first meets the Scarecrow. I think I have seen the Wizard of Oz as many times as anyone else on this earth at this point.
