San Diego!!! Warning, long post with lots of pictures!

Well, we made it!!! San Diego was a blast!!! We had the most fun at Sea World spending 2 full days there. We spent just one day at the zoo and that was long enough. Once you've been to one zoo, you've been to them all! We took tons of pictures but here's just a sample of them!

We got up early on Saturday morning hoping to get to SD early afternoon. We would have made really good time but as I was getting ready that morning, I heard Alyssa calling me from their bathroom and she was throwing up :p Not the best way we wanted to start the day and was what we had ahead of us. About every half hour to an hour, we were pulling over on the side of the road so she could puke! We finally got to a gas station/food court and got her a cup and paper towel so she could puke in that. It got hard to pull over once we hit the interstate. The whole day she felt miserable but by the time Sunday came, she was better! Thank God!! She kept saying this was the worse day of her life...poor thing, she never gets sick and when she does, she gets sick on our trip to San Diego.....ca la vie!!!

With all the sickness behind us, we started Sunday with the zoo. We took the guided bus tour (well recommended) and that took us around the whole zoo and stopped to let us take pictures. After we did the tour, we went back to a few of our favourite exhibits, the giraffes, elephants and monkeys!

Monday and Tuesday were spent at Sea World. These were are favourite days but most expensive. We had planned to bring in a cooler with water and snacks to help cut some of the cost but we weren't allowed to bring it in Sea World. The zoo allowed it but not SW. So of course a bottle of water was $3.29 and pop was like $7.00 in a souvenir cup. Oh well, fun's not cheap!!

Well, that's just a very small sampeling of San Diego. There lots of shows and exhibits at Sea World and even some rides. Both days we got soaked!! We went to the beach and put our toes in the ocean. You can check out my Facebook page for more pictures! A trip well worth taking. I'm so glad we went and Chris and I are talking alrady of going back in the winter and heading up to Disneyland, without the kids!!! Before you think we're mean, my parents are taking them to DL in October and we're not allowed to go!!
