Today was Zoo day.
Link to the Zoo. San Diego Zoo
We managed to last about 8 hours with the animals before they closed and chased us out. We were a bit concerned when we got there as there seemed to be about 10 bus loads of school kids. But for the most part it was not crowded at all.
We managed to see lots of reptiles, and other animals such as the polar bears ( in San Diego???) and Pandas and of course lots of monkeys with a rhino and hippo thrown in. We did not get to the elephants or the big cats. We got stuck in the lost forest area, an aptly named section of the park. I think they purposely made that area very confusing. They definitely need to fire the folks that made the maps for that section of the park.
If you ever plan to go to this zoo, be prepared. It has to be the hilliest park in existence. Lots of up and down trails. While it does make for a nice backdrop behind the exhibits the hills can get to be a bit much.
Back on the San Diego freeway at the tail end of rush hour and the starving crew was back home for a great crock pot chicken courtesy of our own on board master chef... (hint: it's not the Minnesota boy..)
