Growing up we went to the zoo ever so often. Our favorite time to go was during Konsum (Coop) Zooli Dag. One of the two big grocery store always sponsored the zoo for 2 days each year. We would go to the local grocery store Konsum (Offical name is Coop) and get free kids tickets. We would go and have a great time, not only was it free, we also got a free goodie bag and drinks. It was great! Today was Konsum Zooli Dag and we decided to take advantage of it. Brian got in for free and Aaron and I got in at a discount price. Even at full price the zoo in Basel is well worth it. It is set in a gorgeous park with lots of trees. It includes an aquarium with rather funny penguins. We saw many wonderful and playful animals today. Unlike with many zoos in the States, there aren't souvenir shops everywhere, just one rather small one.I have always loved the Basel zoo, today didn't disappoint. Although there wasn't a goodie bag, the kids still got a drink and a small animal magnet. We had a blast and it was a welcome trip back memory lane.
