San Diego Fun

We have been in warm, sunny San Diego since Saturday & we are loving it. Savannah did great on the plane. She slept 2.5 hours and made friends with everyone around us. We landed early in the afternoon so we just got settled in to our hotel, got groceries, & started relaxing. Sunday we went downtown San Diego to the Gaslamp district. There was a car show so it was fun to walk around & look at old and new high end cars.

Monday started our theme park adventures at the San Diego Zoo. We spent the first half of the day at the zoo & then came back to the hotel for a nap. Yep we all needed one. Then we went to Matt's favorite Mexican restaurant. It was great after not having any Mexican food for almost a year. Tuesday we went to the Wild Animal Park for the first part of the day. This was so much fun. We took a Safari ride to see the animals. That night we went to La Jolla to take a stroll on the beach & then went to the best little pizza place. Wednesday was all about Sea World. We spent the entire day there & it was my favorite:-). I feed the seals--they were hungry pups. We watched a show called Pets Rule which made our dog look like a wild animal--sorry Izzy but true. Savannah loved this. She kept pointing & squealing. I think her mouth was open the entire time. We also watched the seal show--we gave it a C. Not enough action for our little one. We also went to a special 4-D Elmo movie. Savannah loved it until they sprayed water right in her face then the fun was over & it looked like Daddy wet his pants. The last thing we did at Sea World was watch the Shamu show. Again Savannah LOVED it. We think that she was channeling her Aunt Sarah:-) After that long day we ate a quick bite, took a dip in the hot tub because the pools were freezing & then lights out.

The rest of the week is suppose to be very warm so we are spending it at the beach. Below is the link to our pictures so far. We hope you enjoy Savannah discover & learn as much as we did...

Enjoy!

Matt, Jeri, & Savannah
