A Day at the Park in San Diego

Here are a few more pictures from our vacation taken during the first week of January. We were worried about the weather being cold in San Diego (well, compared to Guam) in January, but really we had no worries. Every day we were there was in the 70’s and even got up into the 80’s a couple days. I should have packed my shorts and swimming trunks! One of those beautiful days we spent at Balboa Park enjoying the museums and outdoor displays. Here are a few pictures from that beautiful day.

We spent the day with Matt, Milo and the neighbor girl Kylie. It is hard not to enjoy a day spent with a son and grandson.

The first place we went was the science and discovery museum – a “hands on” playing and learning place for kids. We enjoyed watching Milo enjoy himself immensely there.

Milo gravitated toward the musical instruments and loved driving the fire truck

 

We all enjoyed building things with the blocks.

I thought the Natural Science Museum was the most interesting. We were almost eaten by a prehistoric great white shark

Milo got to pet the skunk and sit in the mountain lion’s den.

We paused quite a while in front of the bird display. Too bad Missy wasn’t there. We all know how much she likes to have birds perch on her arm or head. :)
