San Diego Zoo

Hub and I spent a fabulous day at the San Diego Zoo yesterday.  In addition to enjoying all the animals, we were also reminded why we love spending the winter months here.  It was an absolutely beautiful day...not too hot, not too cool, not a cloud in the sky.  Just click on any photo for a larger peek...

Relaxing

Breakfast

So much bamboo, so little time

I could have watched these Pandas for hours

This dude was pacing the whole time

Fun in the pool

A lovely family

Mother and child...I could barely keep from getting emotional.

Snuggling

That's a lot of ivory

What a pussycat

Another kitty

Chillin

Oh so cute



So fun to watch



Sasquatch

Grooming time

Thanks.....

......for the memories.  Just the other side of the USS Midway, we located the display below.  First of all we came upon the larger than life statue of a returning sailor kissing a nurse. 
Secondly, we enjoyed the statues depicting Bob Hope entertaining the troops. 

USS Midway

The USS Midway is open to the public in downtown San Diego.  We spent a better part of the day there and enjoyed our tour.  I pretty much posted these pics for Greg. 

Falcon

While enjoying our breakfast, we happened to see a new friend out there this morning.  Wow!

Sailboat races....

As we traveled to and from Coronado Island, we happened upon a sailboat race on San Diego Bay.  Sandi and Michael...you would have loved it!


 

 

A photo finish!

As the sun is going down

The Del Coronado Hotel

Taking the ferry to Coronado island, then walking to the Hotel Del Coronado for lunch has always been one of our favorite things.  We enjoyed that trip today.  The weather was perfect!
