Spring Break-San Diego

For spring break this year we went to San Diego! We left early on Tuesday morning and arrived at 9:30 in San Diego. We got our rental car and headed to find our hotel, "The Dana, at Mission Bay". We unloaded our bags and headed to Sea World which was right next door. We spent the remainder of the day there.


We enjoyed watching the shows, seeing the animals and last getting soaking wet on 2 rides. It was only around 65 degrees so being wet was very cold. We headed back to the hotel to change.
On Wednesday, we headed north to see Universal Studios. It was a long drive, but worth it. We spent the day there and had a great time. There were no lines and we could just jump on the rides. Kassidy decided she was to old to stand next to Dora without being forced and Kace was determined not to go in the House of Horrors, but he was forced. (Bad parents) We got to see some of the animal actors which of course, Kassidy loved. We were able to feed the rays which was fun, especially for the sneaky bird that kept flying and taking the food out of hands before we could see it coming. Then headed back to the hotel. (Traffic is horrible in downtown L.A., glad I don't live there) We stopped at Mission beach and had dinner and walked around.


Thursday, we headed to the Wild Animal Park. We were able to see lots of animals, then we headed back. We stopped at an Aquarium and then at the La Jolla Beach. Duff and the kids had fun hunting for and catching sea creatures.



Friday, we went to the USS Midway Museum, which was cool and full of history. Then we went to Coronado, and decided to go back to Mission Beach. So we headed back and the kids and Duff rented wet suits (it was cold) and buggy boards and a surf board and we hung out at the beach for a couple hours.

Saturday, we went to the Science Museam at Balboa Park. It was a great hands-on, fun thing. Then headed back to the beach for more buggy boarding.

Sunday, we packed up and headed home. We had a great time!
