The San Diego Zoo






our faces as we were waiting for the bus tour to start. don't we look excited!? well, except for molly, she didn't know what was going on.



they were so excited to see the elephants!

The tour guide told us that the animators for "The Lion King" actually came to their zoo to sketch the warthog for the film. This is the real "Pumba" from the movie.


We love going to zoos, but i need to remember, the smaller the child, the smaller the zoo. This zoo was huge, and had some really awesome animals in it. The girls lasted a couple hours on foot, but we only got to see maybe a 1/4 of the whole thing by then. So, we took a bus tour of the rest of the zoo, and they loved that! Molly slept on my shoulder during the tour, so i could actually look around and enjoy myself. I'd have to say that the bus tour was my favorite part as well...

Looks like you had fun, there's a lot of hills at that zoo, good thing you took the shuttle :)

The ride sounds relaxing. Much better than trying to manage three kiddos on foot!
