Day 14: Sunday, July 15, 2012


Today we took a little road trip down to San Diego for the day. And what better thing to do in San Diego than to go to the zoo!    We stayed for hours and made it our mission to see everyone animal in that place (except the snakes of course).  Please enjoy the following photo montage of (almost) all the animals we got to take pictures of:



Andean Bear

Baby Sea Otter

Grizzly

Sloth Bear (he was doing a little dance which was quite entertaining)

Lynx

Southern Warthog

Cheetah

Giraffe fam

Zebra!


Kangaroo (propped up & chillin)
A very camera-ready Flamingo

Rhinoceros 

Elephant

Capybara (largest rodent in the world!)

Polar Bear

You can't see him but there is a giant lion in this area.  I was mostly just very disturbed by the sign ...


We tried to steal a baby sea otter…we were unsuccessful.  But YOU KNOW we went home with a sweet souvenir cup!

From the zoo we headed downtown in San Diego to check out Comic Con which was wrapping up.  You’ve never seen so many adults in costume in your life!  It actually looked pretty fun so we decided to add this to our bucket lists to attend one day just to say we were there.






We did a little window shopping at some local stores and then ate dinner downtown at Zanzibar’s and then headed back to LA.  This is when we had the privilege of experiencing the crazy LA traffic.  What should have been a 2 hour drive turned into 3.5 hours and we wanted to die. Haha Not really but it was later, we had walked around the zoo all day in the heat, we had full bellies…it was a struggle.  But again we survived.  JC was looking out.
