The Zoo was clean and had a nice atmosphere. The animals we saw were impressive and appeared well taken care of. The gorillas were incredible! We watched them for at least 20 minutes. They were so interesting and entertaining. I understand it's not really within the control of the zoo and zookeepers how active or visible the animals are. It just seemed some exhibits made it difficult to see some of the animals (e.g. the tigers). Some views from higher elevations would be neat. There didn't seem to be many of those. But overall, it was a good visit. They provided a sensory kit for my autistic son which is really cool. There were open areas to eat food you are allowed to bring in which is great. Well maintained and pleasant.

I had a great experience at the St. Paul airport Smashburger! The service was fast, the nice lady that gave me my food smiled at me, it was clean, and the food was so delicious! I got the bacon burger, fries, and chocolate shake. The burger was so amazing! It was extremely flavorful. The bacon was crispy, the tomato fresh, and the sauces so perfect. I hope I have a layover at this airport again!
