Happy Friday!

Sorry it's been so long since a posting! We come home from these day-long trips and are ready for bed! Let's see what we need to tell you...on Wednesday, we went to the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park...it's like a safari in the "suburbs" of San Diego! It's 18 times larger in size than the actual zoo! What makes it more amazing than the actual zoo is that we were more "up close and personal" with the animals. It was a very hot day, so the girls got to splash around a bit in the Splash Zone after we took a guided "safari" through the "jungles of Africa" and saw animals such as Giraffes, Lions, Zebras and Emu (just to name a few).

On Thursday, we went and toured the "Museum of Making Music". You'll notice there are no pictures and that's because we weren't allowed to take photographs in the museum; but we can tell you that it was really neat to see! The museum is a walking tour of the history of Popular American Music from the late 1800's (Rag Time) to current day. The last room had a bunch of instruments that we could play around with and see what they sounded like. After the Museum, we took a return trip to the place that Victoria & Samantha loved the most so far...Lego Land! This time, the weather was much warmer than when we went the first time and they were able to splash around in the water portion of the park as well as hit up some of the rides that we weren't able to get on the first time around.

Today, (Friday) we took it a little bit easy to prepare for the weekend trip (more about this in a second). We went over to visit Uncle Francis, Aunt Jen and Anthony for a while and the we took a tour boat cruise around the San Diego Harbor. The tour was 2 hours long and we got to see the Naval Ship Yards and the San Diego and Coronado Areas from the harbor...it was a lot of fun and really neat to see!

This may be the last post you see again until Monday Night because VERY early tomorrow morning we are heading to Disney Land! We are getting ready now to head to bed to get a good night's sleep and be ready to pull out of Aunt Shiloh's house by no later than 5:30 or 6:00 a.m.! If we (read: Sam) have the opportunity to post before than, we'll be sure to; but don't be surprised or worried if you don't hear anything until Monday night!

Talk to you all soon!
