San Diego vacation days 1& 2

This year for spring break, we decided we all needed a relaxing and fun trip. So to San Diego we went! We arrived Monday (after a bout of car sickness from Julian). We had tonstop several times to let Julian get fresh air. As we got closer to the mountains, we fell upon a TON of snow . We thought it would be so fun to stop and play, and that's what we did. When finally arriving in San Diego, We checked in to our awesome La Jolla hotel. It was really close to my dad and walking distance to the beach. Monday night, we met with my dad and Sandy, and Cas and Gabe for dinner in La Jolla. After dinner, we walked the beach and let the kids swing on the swings that faced the ocean. Wow was it beautiful! We then finished the evening at Papa and Sand'y's for dessert. A great 1st day!

On our 2nd day, we visited the San Diego zoo. It was such a beautiful day out! We saw elephants up close and personal, monkeys, rhinos, polar bears, giraffes, etc. my favorite was the gorillas. We stayed inside the exhibit and watch the gorillas interact with each other. At one point, a mother gorilla was holding and rocking her baby gorilla. It was the sweetest thing I have ever seen. We rode the sky line so that we could see the park overhead. The zoo is very big and requires a lot of walking and hiking so the sky ride was well worth it. The zoo was so much fun I cannot wait to go back! That night for dinner, we met Papa for sushi and beer. The sushi in La Jolla is fabulous! We then went back to Papa and Sandy's house for drinks and dessert. We sat by the fireplace and enjoyed some family time. Another great day!
