San Diego!!

I haven't posted in awhile because Layla and I went with Chad to San Diego for work. We stayed through 4th of July weekend and had a great time. The trip started out with Layla's first plane ride. She did GREAT:-) We flew from Jacksonville to Houston then on to San Diego. The first flight Layla slept the entire flight... the second flight was another story. She had her normal cat nap and then was up for over 2 hrs on the flight but she was really good. 

We stayed from Monday through Thursday in a hotel near Chad's work which was right outside San Diego in a beautiful area. We then went to a resort on Mission Bay in San Diego for the weekend, which was right on the water. The resort was very tropical. Although the resort had a tropical feel it was definitely cooler there. It was in the high 60's - low 70's which felt cooler for us Floridians!

These ducks followed Chad and Layla to our hotel room...they didn't want to leave;-) They live there!!

We went to the San Diego Zoo and it was amazing. There are so many animals there that I have never even knew existed. We had a great day! Layla slept for the first half and then woke up to enjoy the rest of our visit. We couldn't even get through the entire zoo...it was that BIG!!

We went and walked around Balboa Park during the day on the 4th. It is a beautiful park filled with museums, trails, and the zoo!
