San Diego Zoo Photo Tour

Ok, not really a tour per se, but I had fun taking pics today, so there'll be a lot of them :) 

After a very chilly, rainy day yesterday, I was very happy to wake up to sunny weather - my mid-week day off with the kids and it was perfect weather to have an adventure! We piled into the car, lunches packed, and headed to the Zoo. It was really a fantastic day, heading in whatever direction the kiddos desired. Did lots of walking, saw plenty of reptiles & amphibians, elephants, apes, monkeys and more :)  Looking forward to many more visits this year!

Alright, you were warned - here you go!

Very beautiful, very WINDY day - hair below is proof :)

They're in front of a large aquarium of swimming turtles and coy fish :)

M was SO excited for the Aerial Tram Ride, which took us right to the Koalas, Ice Age Theater, and the short track to the elephants :)

.

Had to pick up a few new friends....M was excited to take home Buck (from Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs) and Kaylie got to take home a mini polar bear (baby to her larger polar bear at home :)

.

Look how GIANT that elephant is! Or how tiny K is, either way :)

.

Elephants!

Her polar bear stayed cozied up to her a large part of the day :)

Giant elephant collars?
