We spent this past week on vacation in San Diego with Lisa's parents. We stayed in Oceanside and had a beautiful room with a view of the ocean. While there we went to the Zoo and Wild Animal Park. We also walked on the beach and visited one of Rich's mission companions. 
The first day we went to the zoo. We got there just in time to see the baby panda. The panda was 7 months old and adorable. We were surprised when we saw the baby had climb up a tree all by herself and was comfortably taking a nap.
We then made our way to the Galapagos Tortoise exhibit. A couple of years ago we went to the zoo and missed seeing the Tortoise, so we made sure to see them this time. Most of you probably know Lisa loves Tortoises and Turtles, so seeing these giants was the highlight of our day.
On Tuesday we spent the day hanging out at the beach and visiting with Rich's mission buddy. At the beach Rich skipped rocks on the waves and I looked for shells. We both love the ocean and walking along the beach. That night we had dinner with Rich's friend. They served their church missions in Italy together. They had a good time reminiscing and catching-up.
The next day we went to the Wild Animal Park. We enjoyed the ride which takes you on a safari through Africa. It was neat to see the animals roaming free like in the wild. We were excited to see a baby giraffe and 7 lion cubs. We also had fun feeding the Lorakeets (birds) and riding the wild animal carousel.
