This is by far the best family outing for the price in Bangkok. You can travel two hours outside the city to farms and other big attractions. But for a 20-30 minute taxi ride (under $4.00), and the entry fee for our whole family was under $10, you just can't beat it. The place is huge, has lakes throughout, wandering Monitor lizards (watch out), and everything a zoo needs. It also has play areas, a great Thai food court, a KFC, 7-11, and snack kiosks throughout the whole place.
We were so thankful for the cool weather, and the place was not busy, it being Monday and all, just a few school groups. We set out early and made it back in time for the girls' naps.

Bella stayed in the stroller a lot, we even brought the Buggy board, but Sophia did not use it too much.

Snack time
David thinks these things are cute, I said they looked like huge water rats, gross, but then he said they reminded him of the nice guys in 'the Lion, the witch and the wardrobe,' and I couldn't disagree.
quite the mangy miniature horse. He really wasn't mangy, just dirty.
'wait one minute and I will feed you' says Sophia. And she did.
she said this was her favorite part of the zoo outing.
Giraffes really are amazing creatures....
and of course they got to go on a few 'rides.'
Bella is waving to daddy.
the zoo is near the capital area and palace, it is a busy place, I really don't know what this building is, but it looked really cool.
