Trip to Zoo: (In past tense)

This essay is about the experience of visit to the zoo. Last weekend, I woke up in the morning and felt like want to try something new. I called my friend and he shared an experience of trip to the zoo. After the call, I decided to visit the zoo, as the temperature was awesome. In Chicago, “BEG zoo” is a very famous Zoo and must visit family attraction. Many travel sites has given a good ratings on the zoo.

BEG zoo was located at 30 miles from my home. Using the Google maps, I noted the direction to the zoo. I started at 9 am and I was able to reach with in 45 min to the zoo. When I reach, I had seen lot of cars in the parking lot and the zoo was very crowded. First, I saw a group of monkeys and then tigers. Suddenly, I heard some crazy noise on the left side. I turned towards the side and I saw huge lion making weird noises. Zookeeper came and told us that lion make these kinds of noises, when they are hungry. He gave a food to the lion.

I also saw elephant, horses, and parrots. Overall, it was very nice and enjoyable experience. My favorite animal is lion and I am so happy to see them at Zoo. I had so much fun and decided to make regular trips to the zoo.

Mister, I have analyzed the errors and trying to correct my mistakes. Can you please explain?

  1. good ratings to the zoo – what is difference between “on the zoo” and “to the zoo”
  2. When I reached it, - why we need “it”, can I write “when I reached” or "when I reached there"?
  3. noise at the back – why it is better than “on the back”
  4. is the lion – I should use
