Day 2 in San Diego consisted of the Zoo and lots and lots of walking. Beautiful zoo, lots of trees, though the animal enclosures were smaller than I had expected for the famous San Diego Zoo. Actually, the exibits had nothing on the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans. We had a great time though. After leaving the zoo, we went up to Oceanside to dine with my Uncle Philip (my dad's brother) and Aunt Pat. We arrived to find a beautifully set table, complete with linens, china and crystal. I was rather nervous having our 6 kiddos at a formal dinner but they were AWESOME!!! They found it quite the experience and even rather fun. We all had a wonderful time catching up over delicious food.
Day 3 was back to Sea World. We caught the shows we had missed Friday and saw some other exibits. After about 4 hours there, we left the park for lunch from In and Out Burger where, to Kaigan's delight, were not one but two Ferraris! The owner of one was out there and chatted with him about cars and even let Kai sit in it for a photo op. Made Kaigan's year!
One more family event followed at our cousin's house. Wonderful Italian family dinner.
Now we're back at the hotel in L.A. for our last night in the States. I really can't believe it's time to leave. It just seemed like this day would never get here. Tomorrow will be the longest day ever!!! Our flight doesn't leave until 9pm so we have to find things to do til then. We'll see Mom off at about 9am then take a tour of L.A.
It may be a while before I have access to internet in NZ but will post an update as soon as I can.
