On Sunday, after church and a great visit with Sandy and Steve we drove down to San Diego. We had a beach house rented with my Mom, Ben and Christina, Heather and Andy and all the kids. It was a great house just a block off the beach on the north end of Mission Beach. On Monday, we spend all day playing on the beach the kids loved it! So did the parents!
On Tuesday, we went to Sea World. They have amazing animal shows and some fun rides for the kids. Maddie's favorite part was petting the Sting Rays and Bat Rays. She spend over an hour with her Dad playing with them. Max's favorite part was the pet show and sitting in the soak zone at all the shows, until the Shamu show when we really got soaked!
On Wednesday, it was a colder day but we wanted to get one more day in at the beach. We went to the beach near our house in the morning and played in the sand.
You can see our beach house, it is the tall blue one, behind the castle.In the afternoon we took the kids to La Jolla to see the seals. Then we went to Tourmaline Beach at low tide, there are tide pools there with all kids of sea life. Max collected hermit craps in his bucket and he said, "We're making a hermit crab family!" We had a great time exploring.
On Thursday, we left wonderful San Diego and went back up to Anaheim for a day and Disneyland. The kids loved Disneyland. Maddie loved the rides and surprisingly wasn't scared at all. Max's favorite part was a presentation that they had of a robot Asimo. Both kids loved meeting Mickey Mouse and watching the fireworks. It was a fun day and a great vacation that we will remember for a long time.
