of the zoo variety.

San Diego Zoo is definitely no Hogle Zoo.  It is amazing that we spent well over half the day there, and didn't see the same animals twice.  Paul isn't much for the zoo, and the original plan was that the zoo would be our first day adventure.  Well, with the sickies this whole week has been turned upside down.  We are just rollin' with the punches...and takin' it a day at a time. 
apparently he needed his nose picked.
With the change of plans, it actually ended up being better for us.  The San Diego zoo is mostly shaded, and was a good thing to do for Paul...away from the sun, away from rides...a good chillaxin' day!
Vin loved the birds, and Van was obsessed with getting her picture taken with all the statues. We took our time to sit and eat icecreams, snack on popcorn, and bought the cool over priced refillable cup.  We even paid for a good ol' foot massage that was needed after all the walking!
I can't say that we will ever go back, but it was definitely worth going once...and don't let anyone tell you it is no better than Hogle Zoo!  Liars!

The day ended with a nice dip in the swimming pool and hot tub...followed by at least an hour of wrestling Vin to go to bed. 
Happy Vacationing!

Um hello, the San Diego Zoo has PANDAS. That automatically makes it better than the Hogle Zoo. I'm glad you guys enjoyed it!

That zoo is ginormous! I was in awe the entire time and I'm not a zoo fan. They are stinky. Glad you're having fun!
