A Trip to the San Diego Zoo

Earlier this week, we had (made) the opportunity to have a family day at the San Diego Zoo. It was refreshing to take time away from todo items and be tourists for a bit. Plus, it was a great opportunity to have a 'field trip' for school.

We saw many interesting things, but the highlights were watching the polar bears swim, seeing the tigers face to face and of course the pandas. Well, all we really saw were panda butts.....sleeping in the trees, these guys get an awful lot of attention for doing not much at all....

However, given our boat's model name (a Ta Shing Panda) we felt compelled to build a bond. Sophie gobbled up all sorts of information from the zoo keeper and then wrote a report on them. It was pretty cool.

AND - We had this opportunity to get a great Family Photo!!!!




Tomorrow we are off to the Latitude 38 Baja HaHa kick off party. Costumes are strongly encouraged. Sophie will be dressed as.........you guessed it.....a Panda :)
