Seriously, Dallas Zoo - you're scaring the children.
This reminds me of a story my parents told me about when I was younger.
When I was about 3 or 4 years old, my parents were driving me and my sister to Marine Land. Now we all know how close to the US border Marine Land is. My Dad missed the turnoff that would have taken us to the park, instead making a beeline for the US border. When we reached the station, and the border guard asked what our business was in the US, my Dad explained with much confusion that we had intended togo to Marine Land.
It must have been a slow day, because normally such a mistake would probably be a regular thing with many confused families missing the turn. Or maybe the two parents with their infant children were suspicious as fuck and were actually Colombian drug runners.
We were asked to pull to the side, because in order for us to turn around we had to cross the border. Since our 'visit' was under suspicious circumstance, our car was searched for over an hour. When all of the zero drugs/weapons/immigrants were found, they finally returned my parents identification and made us go back through the Canadian customs.
While this was yet another inconvenience, the Canadian guards had been watching with some amusement, and gave us significantly less hassle in getting back into Canada.
So that's my story. No refunds.
