San Diego Adventure: August 7, 2011

We slept in since we were so exhausted from Saturday. We got all packed up and checked out of the hotel. It was decided that we would drive down to Balboa Park where the Zoo is located. Dave wasn't feeling well and we were both sore from carrying Noelle the day before. I would have liked to have gone in to the zoo for a few hours but that would have been expensive and probably painful! We wandered around Balboa Park for a while instead.



Dave wanted to stop at a Japanese Tea House and Friendship Garden so we did.









Noelle enjoyed herself.



We headed out of the city and thankfully there are not as many crazies on the roads on a Sunday, but again there were some near misses! What the heck people!? We even saw a very bad wreck that probably ended in tradgedy for someone, yet after seeing it so many just kept flying by us! So stupid! And it was hotter going home than it was going down so the misters really saved us!

On the way down we spotted the March Field Air Museum. Dave wanted to stop on the way back to check it out. There is a new base on the other side of the field but this was the original from the 1930s and 40s. They had a ton of stuff and Dave would like to take his dad there on one of his trips. It's just outside of Riverside.

Daddy and daughter with the fastest plane on earth.



Noelle tried out some of her flying skills. She was ready to shoot some planes down!





And then she blasted off into space!





We made it home safely and the kitties were happy to see us. I think they enjoyed their kitty buffet while we were gone and probably hoping we take off on an adventure again soon!

We have videos to post too. That will take me a while to get uploaded. Check back!
