sPrInG bReAk!!! Part 2

So here is spring break part II, the next day in San Diego (Thursday), Nathan and I returned to the zoo for a few more animals:

Riding the skytram to the other side of the zoo, what a neat thing!

The polar bear took a swim, right when we got there so we were lucky!

Nathan's favorite animal, an artic cat, and his ears were really long and pointed

This monkey was funny, he kept putting his whole arm down this bamboo tube

Another animal ambassador, a timber wolf, and his friend, another golden retriever, was in front of him, look how close we got!

Later that day we also went to Escondido to the Wild Animal Park. That place was awesome! And all the animals were a lot more active, I'm guessing because they had bigger enclosures. We wished we had another half of a day to explore that place, but we'll definitely go back.

These lions were neat!

Look at that tiny elephant, only a week old!!! He was so funny to watch

We watched the elephants for about an hour, because if you look in the background you can see that these two younger ones were just playing and playing. Then another one would join in. They were lots of fun to watch, and then Nathan started doing commentary which just cracked me up. After the Wild Animal Park we drove up to L.A. that night to visit with Nathan's brother Richard and Rachelle, and our adorable nieces Elisa and Lydia. SpRiNg BrEaK Part III to come...

How fun that you got to go on a warm trip! That's crazy you ran into the Colemans! What are the odds of that!? Looks like quite the zoo.
