My husband and I went to the zoo for the Polar lights display in December of '07. We do love the Pittsburgh zoo and the prices can be reasonable. . but, I guess I was expecting more of a lights display. There were cheap Chirstmas displays lathered all over the place and it didn't appear that there was any real effort put into it. The snacks were a little pricey, but the best part of the trip wa there was an ice sculpter doing a series of shows. We stayed to watch and found out he was the person who did our weddiing ice sculpture 5 years ago.
Pros: Ice sculpting display, aquarium, caroling staff members
Cons: Prices for snacks, crowds
