Due to the LA Marathon, we decided Sunday would be a very good day to leave LA, so we headed out to San Diego to visit the zoo. The trip there was fairly quick. We got our tickets and began to walk around. We saw a lot of animals. In this one exhibit for cormorants (fishing birds) many local birds had flown in. We watched a cormorant catch two fish, and egret trying to steal the fish, and a heron flew in and caught a fish. It was really neat. They had lots of flamingo exhibits. In one the zookeeper was walking away and a flamingo was following her. They were all under 10 months, so she cuddled the flamingo for several minutes and then when she left he stopped following her. He was really cute. We saw Pandas, a mom and her baby were asleep, and the other one was eating. We saw Koala bears climbing around. They were really interesting. There were three babies. We saw elephants, giraffes, rhinos, hippos, gorillas, and orangoutans. We saw a tiger playing with a log. They had a lot of pigs. They had many birds, but only two macaws. We saw plenty of other animals too.
On the way home we drove along the coast and saw the sun set. We had dinner in a diner and the food was really good.
