Californ-i-a

In late July, we decided to escape the heat by going to California. We flew in to LA, drove down the coast as far as San Diego stopping along the way and then flew back out of LA about a week later. All in all it was a great trip with lots of fun adventures.

We went to the beach:


































We spent a day at one of the Happiest Places on Earth:

Jedi Training

It's a Small World

Mini and Mommy with Minnie

Can't leave without a few souvenirs

In San Diego we found a fun Children's Museum:

And, of course, The San Diego Zoo:

All the Monkeys in the Zoo

Ava and Daddy on the Sky Tram

They even had Panda Bears!

The next day we went to the Wildlife Park and got up close and personal with some of the animals.

Here we are on the tram that took us through part of the park

We saw lots of animals:

Our favorite was the elephants:

There were even a few babies in the herd

Petting the Deer Ambassadors

The Wildlife Park was really a treat - one of the best days of a very fun filled trip. We headed back to LA after that. I'll post separately that portion of the trip because those pictures are on a different computer and this post is getting extremely long.
