San Diego-Sunday 7-31-11

Lesson learned last night-Don't try to get a room in San Diego on the weekend in the summer! Seriously!! The closest we could get was San Clemente. And the weekend beach traffic in Malibu on in was crazy! Plan for today was the San Diego Zoo, which was busy, too. But, we were there so off we went. Stupid me did not stop and get any pics in front with the sign. It is a great zoo.
This polar bear worked for quite a while to dislodge his ball from under the rock in the water.



And we had to wait in line to peek at the giant pandas.



Coronado Beach was the final destination of the day. It is a beach in San Diego. We had reservations at Hotel Del Coronado. It's a really cool place built in 1888 right on the beach.



The temperature was high 70's and low 80's. The first thing we did wad hit the beach.






Tayte and I looked for seashells. The weather may have been warm but the water was not! Too cold for us Okies to swim in.

After the beach we were on our way to check out the hotel and get ice cream, but the kids decided I should get my birthday present first, a day early.



And, yes, those boxes are Tiffany blue!!! A beautiful bracelet and heart charm from Tiffany's in Carmel.



Two thumbs up!
