Big Joel's Safari Petting Zoo & Educational Park

This place was awesome! The staff was so friendly, and the place is big! I wasn’t expecting to see so many animals! Feeding the cows was my favorite part and my daughter loved being able to feed the parakeets. It was a great experience and not that far of a drive!

Great place a bit off the beaten path, but not too far. You could spend as little as a few hours to most of the day here. We were there about three hours which allowed plenty of time to see all the animals and let the kids play for awhile.

Prices are reasonable and the place is clean. Clean as one can expect an animal park to be that is. The staff was also friendly and willing to talk about the animals and share stories.

No food service, as they say on their site. So eat before or pack a lunch. You can eat in the parking lot area if you’re making a day of it.

We took our 2 year old granddaughter and her mom and dad. She had so much fun feeding the animals. They have set the animals up in a way that is fun and  not intimidating for the little ones. There is also lots of staff to help you and keep both the people and the animals safe. Please use the spoons they provided to feed the animals, they keep you from getting bit and also protect the animals

What a cool petting zoo! It is much larger than we imagined! There was so much for the kids to see! The spoons were a smart idea for those that may be afraid to feed the animals with their hands. Took us close to an hour and a half to go around the whole place at a leisure pace. Animals, playground, huge slide for the kids, they had a variety of things to do. Fall decorations all over when we went. Was super fun.

We had fun. I enjoyed walking around with my Grandson (age 2).
He was having fun.
Lots of very sweet animals.

Tucumcari Historical Museum

Tucumcari Historical Museum is a fun must visit if you stay in the Tucumcari area.  Those that work at this historical museum are all volunteers.  The Tucumcari Historical Museum is an eclectic combination of items from the Tucumcari area and residents.  Items range from holey socks (a bit of a joke) to unusual, undefined stones, and relics gifted by residents.  There is a world of interesting items within this collection and for a small prices visitors are encouraged to see, learn, and touch much of the history from this wonderful community.  I highly recommend taking a visit to this museum if you are afforded the time to do so, it is a great experience with wonderful people.

This is worth the stop and visit. We spent about an hour here and it was well worth the admission fee. There is so much history and eclectic items here. You could probably come here a couple times and find more things. I really appreciate that the volunteer showed us around and explained some things as well.

Was a great place. Tons of stuff local focus and the staff was amazing.

Seems like a nice little museum in a nice little town, but it's just an old car show that stays in place and a place to stretch our legs. To the old grey haired guy behind the counter who grunted at us as we walked past the gift case on the way out: you didn't make me or my party feel welcome, and since no one else was there, you definitely had the time to do so. Sorry, maybe your job is unpleasant or someone you know died on that day

Minimal fee to enter - I would recommend this place to everyone (as a must see if you have time) and kids above age 6 should find it interesting as well - even more fun for them is the playground and train outside. Each room of the old 1903 historical building that was once a school (and has a ton of history all by itself) is covered from floor to ceiling with town memorabilia.  There is so much to see but many times I didn’t know what I was looking at, exactly.  If they offer tours of the rooms from an historian I would recommend it.  On the outside they have an old playground, a real Pacific Railroad caboose which you can walk through (some pics attached) and other large historic items like a plane, wagons and an old fire truck.  We loved this place!

Six Flags St. Louis

I always loved going to this thing park as a kid. Now I get to take my kids to it. The lines are usually really long on the bigger rides, I would recommend getting the flash pass if you can afford the extra money. The Batman and Mr freeze are one of my favorite rides including the log flume also, if you plan on going more than two times for the year I would suggest the season pass, you also get food discounts and merchandise discounts with that and premier parking and also access to the water park. The water park is always really crowded into this hard to get on the slides. Overall a very good theme park.

Really enjoyed all the steel coasters. The wooden ones are nice but they are rough, I can't ride them back to back without a break. Reline the tracks with metal tubing. They need to redo the walkway to The Boss coaster. It's ridiculously long with too many stairs.

Staff was excellent dealing with a major ticket scanning issue. Bought tickets in August for Fright Fest and all 6 tickets were scanning as invalid. Had to wait in a very long line to speak with guest services who printed out new tickets which in total took up 45 minutes we could have been in the park. Then we had issues getting our fast passes into the Haunted Attractions. Again, tickets scanning as invalid. Every Haunted Attraction took anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes to get into because our tickets wouldn't scan so the fast pass was useless. Thankfully we ran into Shaun at Jingle who sped up the process a little bit when we went into Slaughterhouse. I will not bother with a Fast Pass again.

Weather excellent today with very few waits more than 15 minutes which is fast! Great rides and entertainment this year. Get your season passes and come see! Lots of fun for all ages😎 a few water park and a few rides were not open. The fireworks were awesome! Excited both sides and traffic was minimal.

A lot of the rides inside both the park and hurricane harbor were closed. The ones that were up and running were a lot of fun though. The food and drinks are pretty pricey but there are some fast food places nearby to choose from. We arrived when it opened, left for lunch then came back until they closed. Despite the amount of rides that were down, my kids (8, 12 and 14) all still had a lot of fun. I’m not a fan of roller coasters or rides in general myself and I still had a good time watching them all have fun.
We also took advantage of Hurricane Harbor. A few of the slides were closed which made the lines of the ones that were open very long. 45 mins for a water slide just isn’t worth it to me.

Minnesota Zoo

We went to their Jack O Lantern spectacular.  It was amazing.  The pumpkin carvings were fantastic and the exhibits were set up beautifully.
It was a cold, blustery day but the event was packed.  Our tickets were at 7pm.  We waited a few minutes in line and then got to enjoy the event.

A very fun walk on a paved path, handicap accessible, through a wooded area full of thousands of beautiful, carved, and lighted pumpkins. It is a bit hilly and pretty dim in some areas but very doable for everyone. (My step count was almost 6000 by the time we were done). It was crowded, but you go at your own pace so easy enough to get out of the crowd. I can only imagine the amount of time and work that goes into doing this. Some of the pumpkins are up in the trees while others are on stands or elaborate displays. Take your time and enjoy all of them, it's worth the walk. I took lots more pictures, could only upload 50.

I love the Minnesota Zoo.  I enjoy the new trail tree top walkway.  It is a beautiful way to see the animals.

I also like to get down close to the animals and the zoo has built many enclosures that allow you to be safely feet away from the animals and still not disturb them.

The food choices are nice and the new order kiosk allows you to order, grab a pager and then wait comfortably at your seat.

Parking was abundant and the dolphin interaction was fun, but short.

I would love to see the monkeys have a little more space to roam as their enclosure was small.

The wolf enclosure was also somewhat limited for the animal and it didn't have anything to keep them busy or entertained.

Overall it was a wonderful day at the Minnesota zoo.  I highly recommend you visiting and supporting this zoo.

The Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular was spooktacular! It's definitely a great family event with options for food and beverages for purchase.  It is recommended to get there 30 minutes early.  There were a lot of people when we went and it was raining.  So be prepared for crowds especially is the weather is good.  There is no structured line. You can pass people and walk faster or slower, so it's just a nice thing to know.  Walk at your own pace.  I also appreciate that it is ADA accessible.  Check it out! Pictures don't do it justice. It is a must-see to get the best experience.

What a beautiful zoo!  We go to the Omaha Zoo often, and this zoo has so many animals I've never seen before.  We loved how much spa e each animal had and how clean their areas were.  The staff were very friendly and they have lots of options to view the animals.  My adult boys loved it too!

Centennial Lakes Park

This is a gorgeous place to hang out in nice weather.
It's very accessible for wheelchairs. There is plenty of  handicap parking (van accessible).
I wheeled around the lake with my husband. It was a sunny, warm weekend day but there was no crowd here. It was incredibly quiet which was nice.  Benches are available along the walk for rest or just relaxing. It's fun to watch the ducks in the water and the paddle boats - you can rent those but I didn't go in that area sorry!
I think it does shift to another park at some point if you're going in the full loop as I saw a sign that said "South Park" -or that means it's the south part of this park. I'm not sure.
It was well worth going as it's hard to find outdoor locations  to wheel around without large hills.

I have this marked as a place to go back to.

We’ve been going up to the cities for years and years and years. Never knew this place existed. It is well worth the trip, absolutely beautiful, you can walk around all three lakes. I think the trail is probably a little over half a mile or 3/4 of a mile long, restaurants, great views, mini golf course.

We love to come here! There are so many nice things to do in the park: go for a walk, play mini golf (a favorite), listen do different bands that occasionally play there, paddle boat…. It’s an easy to access Park and it’s very well kept. The surroundings are great. In September it’s entertaining to check out the art fair they offer.

It was a very beautiful park. It was my first time there! I will come back in September as the paddle boats were in the sun 🌞  and way too hot 🔥 to use that day. I love ❤️ the beauty and the scenery. The swings were a nice touch. Mini golf, yes,  please!!!

I had the pleasure of checking this park out in late October! Being from Florida we don't have much color changes in our trees. Peaceful walk.

Endangered Wolf Center

Very cool experience! I went on a photographers tour, so my trip was more about getting good photos than learning, however, the staff was very knowledgeable and always willing to answer questions. The gift shop was pretty cool as well.

Nothing like it where we live. I didn’t know there were so many different kinds of wolves. The guide was very informative and covered a lot of information in a short time on the endangered tour. Our kids ages 7-14 enjoyed it. And the adults did too!

Absolutely amazing experience. We were greeted at the visitor center by the sound of the wolves howling in unison. Our guide Amira was incredibly knowledgeable and very patient with the endless list of questions from our Scout troop. We can't wait to go back!

One of the biggest hidden gems in STL for animal lovers. The tour guides are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. A great place to take the kids to help them learn about animal conservation!

Visiting the EWC was a memorable experience for my granddaughter and I. We watched a brief video about the mission of the center then headed outside to view the foxes and wolves. Paige, our tour guide, was friendly and full of interesting facts about the animals and EWC.

Nickelodeon Universe

Cool rides. The log fume ride was our favorite. We also liked the Pepsi Orange rollercoaster. Friendly and helpful staff. I recommend getting there early when they open to avoid waiting in long lines.

So much fun! There are rides for all ages and just so many different activities to do.... Wall climbing, Barbie cafe, fly over America...etc.
The rides are not that many points especially if you have young kids. We got an 84 point wristband for$80 roughly I think and it worked great for my two young kids and my husband even went on a few rides with the kids.

We stopped at the mall as an almost afterthought to the end of our vacation!  We had a blessing where an individual gave us tickets to the rides!  The kids got a treat to ride multiple rides and just have a blast!!  Thank you to that anonymous stranger who blessed our family!!

A great Indoor Amusement park for all ages. Gets very busy during holidays. Best rides are SpongeBob, Aibender, Ninja Turtle, log Chute, Brain Surge, Fairly odd and Pepsi. Kids under 48" have decent rides too.

So much packed into a small area! The rides were a little bit rougher than expected but still a great time! Lots of food options and stores. I recommend getting the all day pass and just going at open and making a day of it! Truly fun for all ages without a lot of thrillers.

Mall of America®

Still a great experience visiting the MOA! Fun stores, nearly unlimited, unique items to see/buy. I went a few days before Christmas near the 10AM opening time and even around noon-1:00 it wasn’t overly crowded.

This mall is massive. So much to do and see. Lots of attractions. 4 levels of shopping and dining. Navigating around the mall was easy with the touch screen directories that give directions for the store, restaurant or attraction you are looking for. Friendly and helpful staff.

I have been coming to the Mall of America since it opened. It’s definitely worth seeing. It does get busy during the holidays but is a fun experience. The amusement park is even fun to walk through if you have time. It’s safe and clean and the employees are friendly. I haven’t had any bad experiences—and I’ve been here many many times

I’ve always wanted to visit the mall and finally did. I wasn’t disappointed but maybe more so expected more. The coolest part was the theme park area with the rest of the mall just a supersized version of a mall in any bigger city, sure there are special stores and TONS of normal stores but nothing really stood out to me. That being said I think it is a must visit to cross off one’s bucket list if nearby. I drove around 9 hours, because it’s always been on my bucket list, and can say it probably wasn’t worth the drive but there are other things to do in the area and that makes it worthwhile overall.

Over the years I have seen many an exhibit and store come through the wall of the Mall of America. This truly is a sight.

Even if you're not one for shopping, it's great to see all that's in store here. There's plenty of parking and for a mall that is extremely large, it's actually well designed. There are very few times where you will feel as if it's crowded.

As a tourist attraction, it's on my must visit list.

StoryBook Hill Children’s Zoo

This place is gross, we drove a hour to see basically animal neglect...first time my 18 mth old granddaughter been to see animals and we experience this. Poor sheep's where trying to eat something in there food bucket and it would not come out, rabbits in a wire cage ( one had its mouth open & sneezing weird), one goat was so skinny you could see its spine and ribs, and it smelled so bad! With all the donations they get fix this place up slowly.. Don't let kids see this!!!

100% would recommend! I have a 2 year old and a 1 year old and they loved it!! Will definitely come back!!

A nice little mini farm/zoo with some play equipment. Mostly aimed at younger kids, but we still enjoyed visiting. Free with a donation box. We didn't see any staff, but someone definitely takes care of the place. The duck had a hair do, which was awesome! Merry go round worked well and the kids enjoyed it. Lots of play equipment aimed at 3-6 year olds. They have picnic tables and this place would be epic for a 5 year olds birthday party. They have pigs, sheep, a lamma, geese, a duck, goats, chickens and cows.

We had so much fun with our 8 month old, 4 year old, and 5 year old! It is free and there is a ton to do. We brought lunch and had a picnic on their tables under a shelter. The shelter has tarps that you can pull to keep the wind out! We enjoyed seeing the animals they do have: cows, pigs, sheep, rabbits, peacocks, and chickens. There may have been more that we couldn't see.

Free mini zoo. Has several different playgrounds and a lot of shady spots for a picnic. They also have tables. There were sheep, cows, lamas, goats, pigs, bunnies, and ducks when we went.

Downtown Taos Historic District

Construction in the core area was annoying, but there was no problem navigating the shops and sidewalks.

Well worth the visit. Quaint shops, restaurants and mementos.

Sweet little place to visit, pretty touristy for a Thursday, lots of shops with the same tourist fill like shirts, etc.

Love the town. Really like the local artwork of course. Had some great green chile stew. Can't remember the restaurant though

Not accounting for the constructions, there’s something genuine that is missing from this place. Mostly overpriced tourist stuff. Santa Fe old town is larger in scale and feels more natural.
