Trips from February, 2008
Florida and the Everglades
As a result of some really cheap airfare I found, we took a weekend trip to Florida to see Miami and the Everglades National Park. Conditions there were perfect - not too hot and not too cold - and, being the wet season, there was plenty of wildlife everywhere, including many birds and alligators. Take a look at the rest of the photographs.
San Diego Zoo
Over the President's Day weekend, Lydia, my then girlfriend, and I took a trip to San Diego to go to the zoo, whale watching, and Cabrillo National Monument, among other things. The San Diego Zoo is considered to be one of the best in the country, and this is a small sample of the animals we saw there.
Whale Watching off San Diego
Over the President's Day weekend, Lydia, my then girlfriend, and I took a trip to San Diego to go to the zoo, whale watching, and Cabrillo National Monument, among other things. We only saw a few whales, and only far away, But there were plenty of sea lions hanging around as well as a few dolphins who rode off the bow of the ship. Also plenty of Navy vessels due to the military presence in San Diego. Definitely a fun time and cool things to see.
Cabrillo National Monument
Over the President's Day weekend, Lydia, my then girlfriend, and I took a trip to San Diego to go to the zoo, whale watching, and Cabrillo National Monument, among other things. Cabrillo is at the end of a peninsula, with amazing tidepools and wonderful views of both the Pacific ocean and San Diego.
