San Diego

We took a fabulous trip to a favorite place, San Diego, with Jerry & Ruth. We had a wonderful time!

SEA WORLD

As soon as we got off the plane, we rented a car & drove straight to Sea World. Fortunately, the weather pleasant, not too hot & not too cold!


We tried to let Marley feed the sea lions, but they got too close for comfort for her. She was more than happy to let us feed them instead.






Out of all the shows we watched at Sea World, this one was the best. They trained the sea lions & a little otter to do wonderful little tricks!


We stood in line for one ride at Sea World & that was enough. It took FOREVER to get through the line!


Even though Marley was a bit leery, we managed to get her to touch the star fish in the tide pools at Sea World.


This is our drive by picture of the San Diego temple. It's still so beautiful, even in this poorly taken photo!







Marley's first roller coaster ride was in Lego Land. We had a two day pass, so we went twice. It was really nice to break it up a bit. When I was younger, my family tried to do all the rides in Disneyland in one day & it was a bit grueling & took away some of the fun!










Since Marley was actually steering the boat & we got stuck...A LOT!




Grace looks so goofy! Lego Land really is pretty neat. Most everything is made out of Legos!


So this little ride was a car that Marley could drive all on her own. She didn't get very far before she decided she wasn't going to drive anymore. She got off the ride early!


Marley said that this was one of her most favorite rides & spoke of it a lot!!












This was a little theater that they did plays in. They asked for volunteers & Marley said she wanted to do it. Once it came time to get on stage, though, it took a little coaxing to get her up there. And once up there, she kind of froze & wouldn't dance or anything! She still looked cute!











Even though it was rather cold, we couldn't make a trip to San Diego without going to the beach. Marley had a wonderful time!!


Hey the Jolly Green Giant! Oh wait, it's Jerry!

















These cute little doves were building a nest on the balcony of our hotel room.
