Zoolights – 2014

Tonight we headed to Zoolights at P.D. Zoo and Aquarium.

We picked the perfect night (no rain) to go and the perfect time to go! We arrived right after the gates opened at 5 p.m. and we were through the lights in an hour.

A bit dark but… at the Seahawks tree and the 12th man.

Along the trail as we walk.

The zoo has changed over to all LED lights and the colors are so much more vibrant and pretty!

Tacoma Narrows bridges.
The left side are the “cars” coming over the bridge and the right side are the “cars” heading over the bridge. Awesome!

Isabel’s favorite spot.

Not very cold but our faces were getting chilly by the time we headed back toward the gate. Next year need to remember a scarf and maybe some gloves, if you don’t keep your hands in your pockets.

Mount Rainier.
Gino commented that it was better looking with more detail than in years past.

Looking toward the aquarium house and the large octopus on top of the building
and polar bears on the lake.
