Happy Anniversary San Diego Style

For our 3 year anniversary we decided to take a last minute trip to San Diego. We both LOVE it there and Dave got a great deal because it was booked last minute. We left Saturday morning and flew directly to San Diego. Sol was a champ and slept the whole way. Our hotel had a free shuttle to the airport, Sea World, and the Zoo, so they picked us up. As soon as we got settled we took off for Sea World. It was very busy and VERY hot! Surprisingly hot actually. We nearly melted. We hung out for a couple of hours in the Penguin house just to beat the heat. We saw a lot of the smaller stuff Saturday because it was so busy. We planned to come back Monday when it was less busy.

Sunday we went to the Zoo. The San Diego Zoo is so beautiful. There are so many trees and plants that provide shade, and the animals are so incredible. We had to take things more slowly and Sunday because Sol wasn't feeling very well. We did a lot of sitting but we still had a great time an were happy we went.

Monday we did a Trolly tour of San Diego. It took you all over the city and you could get off and on at several stops. We got off on Coronado and spent a few hours. Coronado is so beautiful. We walked around the Hotel Del Coronado for a while. Its a big gorgeous hotel that was built in the late 1800's. Its right on the beach and they let non-guests walk around and enjoy it. This was probably my favorite part of the trip. We got to put little Sol's feet in the surf, he seemed to like it (he didn't cry, that means he liked it right?). I wished we had worn our suits to swim because the ocean water was quite warm. After Coronado we headed back to Sea World. It was a great trip. Thanks for planning it Dave! Happy 3 years!

Wow, has it been that long? Your trip looks so fun! I wish I had gone. Of course I would have demanded to snuggle in the middle of you two at night and sing you songs of long ago...jk! But, I really would steal your cute little baby and sneak him to PA so I could kiss those cute cheeks all day long! Happy Anniversary guys!

We were able to stay at that hotel last year for one night. It's absolutely beautiful inside and out. That bridge going over to the hotel is crazy though. That was the one part I didn't like!!! It sounds like you had a fun time in San Diego and enjoyed the attractions and sites.
