One mom said, in the refill line for the water spraying toys, she was glad she didn't have to go to Blue Bayou as much now.

One can only agree after having seen the gator deluge a bunch of times:



Take it from me: it is darned near impossible to go to the Cool Zoo water park and not get wet.  And it's about time for this town, too.  Now if we could just get some splash parks adjacent to all the spiffy, newly-equipped playgrounds cropping up all over New Orleans...

Yeah, I know the big obstacle to that is the Sewerage & Water Board. Stop laughing.
