San Diego Zoo and Safari Park

Pictures are easier to describe what we did during these two days in San Diego.

A tiger who would open his eyes every now and then.

A hippo playing in the water.

Panda Bear. The Zoo sells paper made from Panda poo. But they only sold it in huge packs that cost an arm and a leg so no Panda Poo Paper for us.

Some kangaroos

We visited Balboa Park after the zoo and took some pictures. It was cool.

These animals loves just rolling over in the dirt and laying on their backs.

Mohawk Bird

For Joseph's entertainment, he built ketchup card houses. I'm sure he'll teach our children this wonderful skill in the future.

This elephant was in a corral with a trainer and was doing tricks. It laid down and got back up on command.

Safari Park from the tram ride.

The cheetah and dog walking back after they did their 100 yard dash.

The sleeping lion.

For some reason, my video of the cheetah run won't load. But, we got to see a cheetah run at full speed down this narrow field twice. The park does it once a day and it was awesome to watch! They are so quiet and quick. All in all, it was a great trip to San Diego and much needed vacation!
