San Diego Day 3- Girls















Today us girls set out to visit the San Diego Zoo. I have not been there since I was 16 and my girls have never been. It is so amazing there! First of all it was huge! We got there early because the boys had to drop us off before their fishing so we hung around Balboa park. Then we went in and started off with riding the double decker guided tour bus. We sat on the top deck, front row! It was so much fun and we could see a lot and we learned a lot as well as we toured most of the zoo. Definitely a must to get a good feel for such a large place. After that we saw some reptiles and then jumped on the aerial tram to see the Polar Bears. The tram was really neat, very high up but is was a fast ride. We had some lunch and then took in the polar bears and a lot of other animals. Leah's favorite animal was of course the deer; they had a lot of different types there. We spent a lot of time in the Elephant encounter and on the monkey trail. We took in a Sea Lion show, Megan's favorite animal. Of course we took in lots of souvenir shops and the girls bought their favorite stuffed animals. We were done just in time for the boys to pick us up after the fishing trip. What a full day, the weather was perfect for the zoo and it was not too crowded. A nice girls day!
