Spring Break San Diego Vacation San Diego Zoo Day 1

I know these are a few months late but for Spring Break this year we went to San Diego to visit Jared's brother Jacob and to get away from our crazy lives back home in Cedar City. The first day we were there we went to the San Diego wild animal park which is like a branch off the zoo with mostly african animals.

Me and Jared waiting in the car for Jacob so we can go to the zoo!:)
They were walking a cheetah through the park on a leash next to a dog! You don't see that every day!

Mom and baby rhino. Aw!!! they were so cute!
Mom and baby zebra! this baby was born less than 24 hours ago. I could not believe we got to see a baby zebra that young!

Of course Baby giraffe's and some cool birds:)


A very rare rhino that has double horns and has to get one of them trimmed by the vet because the top one puts too much weight on the bottom one.

Mom and baby zebra again:) this is a litte better picture than the one before.




These big fellas were used anchiently in competitions to see who could raise the bull with the biggest horns.







And then I am not going to explain alot of the other animals but I will put pictures of them cause they are fun to look at:)
And then there was the warthog that they had trained to sit and do all sorts of tricks!!1 Hakuna Matata

And then last but not least at the zoo, we got to see my favorite animal EVER! ELEPHANTS!!! they were so fun to watch and had the cutest little babies that love to play. I could have stood there and watched them for hours and hours and hours!!!!!
This big guy was so fun to watch spray water on himself. I have never seen an elephant really do that!
Here is my favorite tiny little baby elephant. He was way smaller than all the other baby elephants and was so cute and fun to watch:)





This last one the little baby started running towards this big one spraying himself off with water and he scared the little baby back to his mommy. I LOVE elephants:)!!!
And then to end our day at the San Diego Zoo I made Jared pretend he was a bat:) hahahaha
