San Diego Zoo

Pretty much ever since we met, Lindsey wanted for us to go to the zoo. We never did, usually because the Toronto zoo was on the far side of Toronto. When we moved to the OC, suddenly we were one hour from one of greatest zoos in the world, the San Diego Zoo. This was a great opportunity to do something that Lindsey liked.
This past Wednesday, I was finally able to find a near-full week day that I could devote to Lindsey. After meeting with my school small Group first thing in the morning, we headed off to San Diego. The zoo was really easy to find just to the north of the downtown area and five minutes from Hwy 5.
The zoo has a really great layout. They have some great stations to see polar bears, gorillas, monkeys, orangutans, elephants and rhinoceroses. The monkey area had a really neat set up of multiple levels. You could see some of the enclosures from a canopy level or down at the ground level. Lindsey really had a lot of fun. We were so focused on the animals we forgot to take any pictures of ourselves (but we got many great shots of the animals - seen here).
