San Diego 2

We went to Sea World!

Lucy's favorite thing was the dolphin show. It was really neat with all the acrobats.

We got into the Shamu show, too!

No, we didn't get wet... it was a little too cold for a front row seat.

We love these cute animals!

After 2 full days of parks, we had a rest day. We wanted to see the Sand Diego Temple and had a picnic.

Later, we took a walk around our hotel and marina.

The next day was for the San Diego Zoo!

Again, we got a ton of animal pictures!

We love to see all the big cats, Boyd was especially excited about them! These were a little harder to get good pictures because these were all in cages.

Boyd said he could just look at the cats all day long!

This leopard came right up to us! We were seriously 2 feet away from this beautiful guy!
Lucy was just dying to see the pandas (she has a stuffed one she takes everywhere).

There was an underground viewing are for the hippo. It was awesome, he came right up to the glass and opened his mouth wide. We were even a little too close for that.

Ken and Boyd were so excited to see the tigers. We probably spent the most time watching them.

We loved the sky ride

The polar bear is really that big standing up, I had no idea- neat!

This monkey was being cute rolling around in the grass and eating.

I think the kids were a little exhausted.

The last day we hung out at the beach. It was a but windy and cool, but pleasant enough for a picnic and some sand castle making.

And this is when my camera ran out of batteries- oops! But, seriously I think we had an overload of pictures. We were supposed to stay another day in Las Vegas, but we were ready to go home, so Ken drove through the night all the way home. It was so nice to have the kids asleep for most of the 12 hours. We had a really fun time and we are happy to be back home!
