Again you might have to change some of your settings to get these to work

These might work, but you may have to twiddle with your setting for playing videos.

Seaworld



While we were in San Diego, we also visited SeaWorld, which is sort of like an aquarium/amusement park.  It's private equity owners have recently IPO'd it, and they have really pushed pricing sky high.  It's a fun place, but I don't see it as being a place one would need to visit much more than once a generation or so, especially at the tariff charged.  Click on the above to see a slide show.

We still had a good time, and the live animal shows are definitely unique.  Click on the above to see.  It was a rainy overcast day, which is good for pictures, but bad for staying dry and having fun in a possibly wet place.

The next day we went to the park which had swings, which I. loves but her sister doesn't.

San Diego Zoo



After my conference last week, we took a few days off to visit friends in San Diego, and spend a day at the zoo.  It was a great visit, and the girls loved seeing the vast spectrum of animals the zoo has.  Unfortunately, there was construction occurring at the panda complex so we were not able to see their signature exhibit, but it was still a full day, and we saw only half of the complex.

These pictures are the best out of the hundred plus I took, and have been scrubbed up a little.  Click on the icon above to see them.

Its easy to get on the tiger...but hard to get off!!!
