Somehow in the 16 years we lived in Los Angeles, we never once made it down to San Diego. So, that became our next destination. TJ found us a spot at an amazing KOA just 15 minutes outside the city, & we settled in. We were amazed at the campground. All of the facilities were beautiful & immaculately kept. And, our spot was right across from the pool & hot tubs.
We had a lot of things we wanted to see in San Diego, but the first one was the zoo. We started off with the trolley tour & then rode the skylift up to the top of the park, walked our way back down & then zigzagged all around. We’d heard how huge the park is & how much walking it requires, but at the end of the day it didn’t feel nearly as immense as we’d expected (we’re also averaging 3-4 miles a day of walking, so maybe we’re just finally getting into shape?). Hopefully?
As an Ohio native, I have to say… the Columbus Zoo is still my favorite. While we had a wonderful time here, and we’re all so glad we went, nothing compares to the exhibits & habitats at the Columbus Zoo! Here’s a photo dump from our fun day!
We had lots of fun in the children’s discovery area. Also, our crew can’t resist a microscope and drawing app…
Our day ended at the Andean Bear exhibit, watching a mama & her cubs! They were the cutest things ever. Mama literally picked up one of the cubs by the fur on his head.
