The Return of LadyZ's Zoos

[LadyZookeeperNY]

The final landscaping has been completed behind the Shark Tunnel, so now my guests have a lot of pretty things to look at besides the Atlantic Swordfish!  :eggroll

[LadyZookeeperNY]

I decided another attraction should go in as a lead in to both the Marine area and the Food Court. Here is the Tropical Aquarium with all its decor.

[LadyZookeeperNY]

Now for the Food Court...it took me nearly an hour to get it mapped out and I still don't think it's big enough  :eggno The food stands that were initially put in were Fancy Pizza Stand, Fancy Drink Stand, Coffee Stand, Chicken Stand, Fancy Restroom; on the other side of the Carousel is an Ice Cream Stand, Soft Drink Stand, Hamburger Stand and the Sno Cone Stand.

At the time the Food Court was under construction, the GH was an acceptable 94. However, when I finished building and started up the game, it dropped down to 91  :faint I was very disappointed. I watched it for a bit, then decided to make some changes. I took out the coffee stand, and added the Icee Stand and the Drink Stand. I also replaced the Sno Cone stand with a Cotton Candy Stand. Here is how it looks now.

The final attraction added was the Ring Toss behind the Drop Zone Ride. This pic is looking over the top of the Food Court.

The final overview for this edition. I think I'll just stick to restaurants and a scattered stand or two from now on. Food Courts just don't agree with me  :eggcry

Final Stats:

Zoo is in June Yr 3

ZR = 93, 15 attractions, 79 benefactors
GH = 93 (finally!), 900 guests, $30 admission
AH = 98, 49 animals in 15 exhibits

I also think that because the interior entrance of this map is so large that it affects the number of benefactors-guests like to see animals as soon as they walk in or leave your zoo.

Wow, LadyZ! Your zoo is a complete inspiration to me! Can't wait to see more, but in the meantime...*rushes off to build*

Wow! Your zoos are so intricate, LadyZ. And I love your use of decorative foliage. If only the guests would appreciate trees quite as much as real people do.

LadyZ, how did you know? I'm working on an S&T topic as we speak! Well, not as we speak but you know what I mean!  :slol:

Super zoo as usual!  :dancer:   I love how your zoos always fit together so nicely!  Don't worry 'bout those guests, they tend to be oblivious to hard work.
