Great family evening, lots of room when moving around the Zoo. Perhaps this has the potential to be a spectacular evening with more stalls and giveaways throughout the entire Zoo - eg: Face painting at the Elephants, Comptetitions at the Giraffes, Sausage sizzle at the Hippo's etc, with the main singing/performing area at the same place. Encourage people to explore the Zoo, and have various people at each post to promote and educate the crowd as they move their way around.
It was, however, a lovely evening out with the kids. Thanks Auckland Zoo!
P.S Our favourite character was 'The Grinch' - what a patient man he was, being by far the most harrased person there!
