Day 6 San Diego Zoo

Today we all headed off to San Diego Zoo except Darren who decided he had better do some work.

Rose has been anticipating this day with excitement as she is obsessed with pink flamingos and apparently there would be some here.

We arrived around 11am and the first thing we saw as we walked in was the pink flamingo pool. We could have gone home then and Rose would have still been happy. They are very beautiful. The Zoo is magnificent - easy to walk around, very spacious and very well kept. There were all sorts of monkeys, lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, meerkats, polar bears, rattle snakes, etc etc etc. My favourite was the polar bear who put on quite a show, swimming around in his pool. Rose’s favourite remained the pink flamingos and I bought her a journal with pink flamingos on it to mark the occasion. I also couldn’t resist a pair of pink and white socks with a rhinoceros on them which said “save the chubby unicorn”.

Tonight we head to Bella and Lance’s rehearsal dinner.Read more
