We had such a fun time in San Diego. Below are just a few of the pictures from our trip.
The Del Mar Fair
We saw some farm animals, Parker was too scared to ride on the ponies, we ate fair food, and came home. Parker's favorite part was riding the school bus to and from our car.
Poway's Old-Fashion Train
Parker loved holding our boarding tickets.
After the train ride, Parker got to the eat "the word's smallest sundae" while watching the train.
Parker loved being in the backyard and playing in the grass. He was fascinated with the dogs jumping up the retaining wall to play on the slope. Well, he eventually got his leg up and climbed up the wall! We were all in shock he could do it. He became very frustrated when the slope was too steep and he couldn't climb, but Dad came to the rescue and played with him.
La Jolla to play in the water and see some seals... instead he spotted an airplane.
Sea World! My favorite day! First stop was checking out the cool bridge in the kiddie area.
We stopped to watch the dolphins before the Shamu show. Parker almost touched the dolphin as it swam by, but he got scared and the last minute and pulled his hand away. He still waved at them and loved watching them jump.
Waiting for the Shamu show... fun, but hot. He liked seeing them jump and he danced in his seat to the music.
He loved seeing the big turtles laying in the sun.
We changed him into swim stuff so he could get wet in the kiddie area.
Then it was back to the dolphins!
More Shamu
Quick family picture before we leave the park... but Parker heard music coming from speakers in the flowers so he stopped for some dancing...and then we left. (Belly shot: 16 or 17 weeks pregnant - I can't remember)
Pizza Port (our favorite!) for some pizza and arcade games.
Coronado for some beach fun.
Playing in the fountain at the Highlands
We went to meet our friends, Rachel and Lucy, at the park in Solana Beach so we stopped by the water.
There were so many other things we did, but it was hard to remember the camera. We celebrated my dad's birthday at Stone Brewery, went to Seaport Village, saw a free concert at the Del Mar Fair, met friends in Orange County (Cassie and her son, Jackson), trips to Coronado for family visits and splashing in the bay, lots of trip to my favorite local eateries and time in the pool. It ended all with a birthday celebration for my grandma. Such a fun trip.
