San Diego Day 5- October 12th






This is our last full day in San Diego.  Tim and I started off early with a run around the bay, the other way this time...it was chilly and drizzling rain after a lot of rain much earlier in the morning.  Then I actually made a disgusting breakfast.  Somehow, the french toast I made had a "soapy" taste so breakfast was ruined.  I think it was bad eggs but not sure.  After that it was off to Sea World.  Grandma Judy joined us for a fun day of seeing animals and riding fun rides.  Again, we started out at the rides.  We went right to the Journey to Atlantis, which is the water ride.  Grandma actually did it and had fun!  I screamed more than she did!  Next, we went to the new roller coaster called the Manta Ray.  Grandma bowed out on that one but the rest of us did it.  Leah started crying again in line and when it was time to get in the seat, Tim had to forcefully put her in and even when she was strapped in, she was kicking her feet and having a royal tantrum!  But, the ride turned out to be a blast and right when it was over, Leah said "can I go again?"  Then we caught the Shamu show, where the kids and Grandma got very wet!  We of course saw the dolphin show and all of the other animal encounters.  It was just a fun and full day but we got to do and see pretty much everything.  Tim is a great theme park tour guide...leave the National Parks to me, he can take the lead at the theme parks!  The kids ended the day on the Manta Ray roller coaster again.  Then it was back to camp where we said goodbye to Grandma Judy.  We had a fabulous time with her!  Then it was time for campfire, smores, and hot tub...one last time!  We will miss Campland but have promised to come back every fall break from now on.  I finally fell in love with San Diego and everything there is to do here.  We look forward to creating a lot of family memories here, year after year...
