Indianapolis Zoo

Saliya and I were tired of being idle through out the summer as many of our family friend were away for their internships. So we decided to go and visit some place if we can make it within a day. Finally we chose Indianapolis Zoo, which is about 50 miles away from Bloomington, IN. 

We rent a car from Ace for one day. Ace is a good place for car rentals. The people seemed to be friendly and we didn't experience any inconvenience either. Also, they allow to keep your car parked there, till you come back. They even pick you up if you want to.  

It took about 1 hour for us to reach the Zoo. Here is the route we took from Bloomington to Indianapolis zoo.

There was a Dolphin show at 10.00 a.m. We really enjoyed it. Anyway what I have to say about the rest is "Not worth watching for the people who have been to tropical countries". The zoo was not much big and there were small number of tropical animals. We had lunch from a cafeteria inside the zoo and left the place sooner than we thought.

Then we thought to watch an iMax show in Indy AMC theater. The movie is Inception. Well, that was cool, so our trip was not just a waste. We had dinner on the way home from a Subway.
