Denver Zoo

I went to the Denver Zoo yesterday and it was absolutely incredible! There were so many beautiful animals, and even more that I didn't make it to. if you visit, plan on being there for SEVERAL hours! I would have spent the entire day there if we didn't have other plans throughout the evening.

I took my 4 month old to the zoo and the aquarium in the same week. In terms of his enjoyment I think the aquarium was a little better. First and foremost, we were inside so I wasn’t worried about him getting overheated at all. He also spent more time staring at the fish than he did at the animals
