Life in San Diego cont...

Hollie came down with her kids, Blake, Seth, and Hanna in August. We had a great time hanging out together! One of our excursions was to the World Famous San Diego Zoo, of course. There is so much to see and do there. Here's a few highlights.

Aubrey intently watching the Sea Lion Show which supposedly
is the longest running Sea Lion show in the U.S.

For a small fee ($5), one can feed the giraffes.

I'm not sure what it is about me and reptiles but I can't seem to go
to a zoo without taking a bunch of pictures of them.



Who would have thought that you could find Dr. Seuss at the San Diego zoo, but you can! There are some great statues of classic Dr. Seuss characters in the children's discovery center and Aaron being a lover Dr. Seuss books had to have a picture with each statue.
We made a quick stop at the petting zoo. Seth, Aubrey, and Connor
were especially taken with this little goat.

The kids and I went along the monkey trail while Hollie shopped for souveniers. We came across the gorilla statues and I practically had to drag the kids away. They were having way too much fun. What is it with kids and statues?
