Columbus Zoo - Day 10

We slept in this morning again.  I still didn't have reservations for tonight's stay, but didn't have cell service so I walked up the hill in the campground to call our next stop.  Luckily , they had a spot for us and were willing to let us check in early so we could make it to the zoo.

We were on the road a little more than 1.5 hrs when we pulled into Cross Creek Camping Resort in Delaware, OH, just 12 miles north east of the zoo.

We left the campground and headed to lunch... The kids were so excited to have some McDonalds!

Next we stopped for a car wash and then made a pit stop to clean up a mess that happened moments after this pic was taken.

We arrived at the zoo around 2:00 pm.  The weather forecasted a high of 82* but the car read 89*... Boy that's warm for walking around a zoo!






We didn't make it all the way through but spent over three hours exploring.  It really is an amazing zoo and I can see why so many rate it the best in the country.
