Fun In The Sun!

We've been in San Diego on vacation for about a week! It was a lot of fun, but also a great learning experience...it being our first time traveling with the girls. In most ways it was WAY HARDER than being at home, but the awesome sights, warm weather and many Kodak moments were worth it! Our very favorite thing was SeaWorld, but we also went to the Wild Animal Park and the San Diego Zoo, both of which were very cool as well. We spent half a day at the beach and that was fun too. Janie ate TONS of sand and tried to eat a bunch of seaweed too, but I tried to keep it away from her :) Gracie liked to be held by her daddy over the waves and we collected a few shells and pretty rocks too. Needless to say, we're glad we survived the drive there and back without bloodshed :) Here are some fun pics to give you a taste of "Alexander Vacation v.1.0)


This is the half second that Janie actually wore her hat the entire trip. She didn't like it at all and kept pulling it off :)

Touching the Starfish was her favorite activity of the day at Sea World.

That's a big walrus swimming round and round his tank. He was HUGE and SOO COOL!

Isn't she a vision in lime? I think she's absolutely the most darling child ever created.

Self explanatory :) This was at the Zoo.

This was the coolest thing at the Wild Animal Park. At the top of the pic is the mother with a nursing cub, and other cubs lower in the pic. The dad is just out of the shot, asleep on the hood of a Land Rover that is in the lion's territory. So Cool! I just loved how close we got to the lions. NEAT-O!

These were foot massaging chairs, but I think Gracie just liked them becaue they looked like Zebras :)

Looks like so much fun! We took the girls to San Diego about three years ago and it was such a blast. I would love to go back again...we didn't make it to the zoo or wild animal park. Next time we'll have to go for a little longer time.
