Maybe it's not in keeping with the Christmas season or the general good cheer of this blog to say that if the Lincoln Park Zoo Lights went head to head in a death match with the Cincinnati Zoo Festival of Lights, that I feel pretty confidently that the Lincoln Park Zoo would get schooled. I will be going to the Festival of Lights soonish and will also take photos and maybe you can be the judge. We loved our time at the zoo here in Chicago on Saturday, but I think the Cincy Zoo has a much better overall plan/scheme/design than the kind of stripey frenetic thing happening in Lincoln Park. . . but we'll wait and see when those pictures go up.
What I know for sure, though, is that the Cincy Zoo doesn't do anything confusing like throw a wreath around Tutankhamun and try to dress him up as a Christmas guy. Pretty sure that wasn't really his bag.
The one thing that the Lincoln Park Zoo does have that the Cincinnati Zoo doesn't, is the impressive back drop, as evidenced here. Chicago is an unimpeachably beautiful and grand town and really shows off during the holiday season.
