I was a little bummed that Drew didn't think to bring our passports. We were right on the border of Mexico & I would have loved to go over to Tijuana for a look around. But these pictures are as close as we got. I got a pic of the fence for my mom because she says 40 yrs ago when she was there, there was no fence.
Hard to see, but the side of the hill with nothing on it is US, the other side covered in houses is Mexico.
The end of the American road, start of Mexico.
Bummer, the pic didn't turn out. The sign for Tijuana is bright colors, but it didn't show up in the pics.
The fence between the US & Mexico behind the outlet mall parking lot.
An Okapi- half zebra & half something that I forgot.
The apes were cool. 4 of them were out where we could see them.
An elephant doing tricks for treats.
Love the giraffes.
I've never seen a koala up close & this one the lady brought out & showed him around & he was pretty close to where we were standing. I love koala bears!
I was so excited for the panda exhibit & then they only had 1 panda out because the panda exhibit is under construction. So we got to see this panda, but the crabby lady in charge chased us along really quickly because there was a line. But this was my first time seeing a live panda.
A polar bear.
Here I am trying not to be freaked out on the tram. Being terrified of heights this was hard to do.
The view from the tram. We wanted to do the bus ride, but it was always crowded.
A shot to try to show you how high up this tram actually was.
This elephant is at the entrance of the zoo. I liked it. Maybe I can get Drew to put one in the front yard for me....
