San Diego Zoo

Our first weekend here we didn't waste any time.  We've already got our membership to the San Diego Zoo as I'm sure we'll be going back quite often.  They also have a safari park which is out closer to our place where they get the animals acclimated before bringing them down to the city.  We've heard it's better to go there when the weather gets a bit cooler though.  It's a little further inland and can be quite hot this time of year.





 They have a gondola across the park which was really fun.  It's also great because it takes you right back to the entrance if you've wandered all the way to the back of the park.


 We had really great timing by the gorillas as they were just getting fed when we showed up.  The dominant male was pretty funny, just sitting there while food was getting thrown at him and would only eat whatever landed directly into his hands.  He was so massively huge, Anne was not much of a fan.
