San Diego Zoo

On August 15, 2010 we flew out of Bellingham to Seattle and then directly to San Diego for the TEAM Rolfs 2010 Summer Vacation.

The last time we vacationed in San Diego was when Mikayla was an only child and just two years old.

Our flight from Bellingham to Seattle was a special treat, allowing us to see all our favorites spots between the two airports:  WWU, Chuckanuts, the 4H Barn, the San Juan Islands, our neighborhood, etc...   As far as flights go, it was a nice ride.

Nana & Poppy drove over to San Diego from Arizona and met us at the airport, ready to shuttle us all around town.

Our first full day in San Diego was spent enjoying the fantastic exhibits at the San Diego Zoo.
I was hoping we would cross paths with a few of the cast members from Three's Company, but it turns out we were at the wrong zoo. That's ok, I took a lot of pictures anyway.





Obviously we didn't see the Reagle Beagle, but we did find this place:






Bugs were non-existent. Except for these two:






Here are a few pics of the actual animals we saw, including a baby flamingo, tiger, giraffe, arctic wolf, sun bear, panda bear, polar bear and lions, plus a million others.






After the Zoo, we went to the beach for a roller coaster ride, palm tree climbing and a beautiful sunset.





Poppy dragged us back to the hotel where we passed out in bed for a few hours of needed rest before our much awaited adventure at SeaWorld.
