Zoopolis 500





















I love living in Indianapolis during the month of May. There is an excitement in the air all in the anticipation of the Indianapolis 500. I love the checkered flags, the sound of the race cars and the track. We hit the zoo today to experience the Zoopolis 500. This celebration has been going on for 30 years. The Zoopolis 500 is when the zoo has some of their turtles race in honor of the Indianapolis 500. We had a great time watching this race, meeting the 500 Queen and princesses and to top it all, driver Tony Kanaan! I was already a big fan of T.K., but he is a class act. He signed autographs and posed for photos with all the kids. What a guy. After a quick race (those turtles moved fast), Dan the turtle won. What a great day!
