Day 28 - Los Angeles

Off to the San Diego Zoo today!!  Had a 'Grab n Go' breakfast at the hotel and the children and Ian certainly did grab and go! I think the final count was 18 muffins and 12 muesli bars! That did everyone for breakfast, lunch and snacks for 2 days!

Got to the zoo as it opened and hopped straight on the bus to take us around the zoo (crutches came in handy again!).  The bus went right around so gave us a quick view of the whole zoo before we started walking.
We went to the Discovery outpost first where there was a petting zoo with goats and sheep. We went around the lost forest which had lots of monkeys and birds. We saw the tigers and lions up really close! The tiger and a lioness were on either sides of a door trying really hard to get to each other. There was an ocelot and a foosa in really small cages which made me a bit sad. They are building new enclosures so hopefully they will get a bigger one.
The zoo is massive. We did a lot of walking which was really hard on my knee. We saw the giant panda and the polar bear, the elephants and giraffes and the red panda which was really cute.

We saw a 4-D Ice Age show too which was really funny.  It actually hurt too as they had things hitting you in the back of your legs!


We caught the chair lift back to the bottom and then headed home. We stopped at Anaheim on the way home and had a yummy Chinese dinner. Caitlin and Joshua  had Baskin Robbins too.
