San Diego









Once again, we went to San Diego for our summer vacation. We got to San Diego about 2 pm and decided to go see Mission San Diego de Alcala. We ended up going to the wrong direction and ended up at the Mission Gorge Park and Old Mission Dam. It was really beautiful with a nice interpretive center. We finally found the Mission later.






The next day we went to Sea World and went on the Journey to Atlantis which was scarier than we expected. We went on a Saving the Species Tour and got to touch sharks and feed sea turtles.


















On Tuesday, we went to the USS Midway Museum and toured the whole aircraft carrier. I have never thought I was claustrophobic but boy did I want out of there. Andrew loved seeing the F-14 Tomcat. We then took the ferry to Coronado and on the way back stopped at the Naval Base.




We went to Sea World again on Wednesday and then heading home on Thursday. We stopped at the Chula Vista Nature Center which has sea turtles, sharks, rays, raptors and shorebirds. The vacation was lots of fun but we were sure glad to head home.
