Touted as the place in town where more than imaginations run wild, the Amarillo Zoo captures the drama and beauty of the animal kingdom for kids of all ages.  The sprawling 15-acre site is located in Thompson Park and features over 60 species of animals from all over the world. When you and your family walk through the attractions at the zoo, you'll notice that the design of each exhibit invites both fun and discovery. And since the zoo is located in Thompson Park, plan to spend the rest of the day in the park enjoying a picnic, a game of tennis, a refreshing swim or brisk walk on one of the many walking trails.

The Peddler Show visits Amarillo's Civic Center twice a year.

So get ready to shop 'til you drop at the Peddler Show, and bring your friends to enjoy a whole day of sights and sounds that make up one of Amarillo's favorite seasonal festivals.

The quaint tables and relaxed atmosphere of their shop will only add to the mood, even if the two of you have to rush off to the office after you're done sipping on your beverage.
