Because vacation time was finally here!!! After months of planning, our big vacation to California had finally arrived. It was awesome! First we went to San Diego, where we spent our days at Seaworld and the San Diego Zoo. We also saw our cousins Janet and Steve while we were there! What a great and wonderful surprise that was! They were visiting family so it was nice to meet up with them for lunch. Janet even bought me a present! I love presents!!!
After San Diego, we drove up the coast to Long Beach, where our good friends Dave and Karol live. They were a blast! And while we were there, they took us to the beach!! And then our other friends Chris, Kristen and Nicolas came up to visit from Las Vegas!
It was all around the best vacation EVER! Mommy and Daddy took over 800 pictures...and it was hard for Mommy to pick out only a few to share here....you'll have to come visit to see the vacation album, but here are a few...
Here is our hotel in San Diego...I had to feed the Japanese Koi every chance I got! Those were some biiiiig fish! There's Daddy and I feeding the fishies - Mommy took that shot while riding in the elevator...
We suffered from a bit of jetlag the first day, so we relaxed and just walked around the mall and Seaport Village in San Diego. Here we are enjoying a smoothie from Starbucks.
and walking around Seaport Village - it was so chilly we had to buy sweatshirts!!
The next day, we went to Seaworld where I saw my favorite fish, Shamu!!
And no fish allergy can keep me away from the stingrays! Luckily, no splashing in my mouth this time :)
We spent two days at the San Diego Zoo...I love animals! While we were there, I saw pandas and koalas for the first time! They are so cute!
oooooh I like snakes
Here's cousin Stevie and I at lunch!! I was so happy to spend time with Janet and Steve and Steve's sister, Lorraine and her husband.
Back at the zoo - I told you I reeeaaally like snakes!
Here I am with my face painted - I LOVED it!
We went back to see Shamu a second time - I love that whale! I didn't get splashed the first time so I made Mommy and Daddy promise to go back again.
I got to meet Elmo and Big Bird!!!! That was so exciting!!
Playing in the spash fountain...
Long Beach!!!!!! My first time at a beach! I love it!!!
Playing with Karol :)
At the beach, Dave and Daddy buried me!
Retaliation!!! muahahahaha!
I wanna be like Dave!
Nicolas!!
We took a stroll before heading to the airport on our last day.....what a beautiful day!
We had a great time and I can't wait to go back to Cali!!!!
