Seufer6: Destination: SeaWorld After 6 wonderful nights on the beach in MX it was nice to head north back to the good ole USA. The border crossing was a new world record only taking us 20 minutes. We arrived at Seaworld and headed to the sea lion show where Clyde and Seamore did entertain us. Then off to see the manatees that the girls love so much. Next was a special treat "DINE WITH SHAMU" it could also be called dining with sea gulls, the gulls ate more off of our plates than Lilly and Emma did combined. A little expensive and slightly overrated, but still some great memory jams. Tanner tried hard to kick some of the birds and claimed he got a piece of a couple of them. Then off the see Shamu and ... read more

After waking up from another great nights rest at the Del, we had to decide what are plans are for the day. Looking out the window didn't seem to be freezing weather, but we didn't want to take any chances at Seaworld, so we decided to head to the Naval Ships here in San Diego, then on to Rosarito Beach Mexcio to spend a couple days with Ty's brother Thane, his wife Leslie, girls, Laney and Carley, before they head back to Colorado. First though, Jessica and Tanner laced up their roller blades and Ty hopped on our new bike to get some excersize blading and riding into town to check things out, while me, Lilly, and Emma pack up to leave. Aftering packing, me, Lilly, and Emma got in the minivan and headed to town ... read more

Seufer6 Roadtrip: Destination-Hotel Del Coronado DUE TO MEXICAN INTERNET SERVICE THIS BLOG WAS LOST AT THE BORDER CROSSING FOR SOME 7 DAYS SORRY FOR ANY CONFUSION MUCHO GRACIAS After a fantastic flight from Denver, we landed at the San Diego airport at 9:30am. Jessica and Tanner did homework the whole flight!!! 72 degrees and perfect! Locating all 10 pieces of our luggage didn't seem to be a perfect feat. With 8 pieces of luggage, 4 kids and 4 heavy carry on bags, we hopped on a bus and headed to National Car Rental to pick out a minivan. A dark blue van with all the bells and whistles didn't want to accommodate all luggage and passengers, so we settled on the largest white dodge minivan with extra cargo space instead. Off in our minivan we went ... read more

Today we went to the "World Famous San Diego Zoo". We started on a tour of the Zoo which took us around to each area. It was a big place with lots of types of animals and beautiful gardens. It is actually listed as botanical gardens. So we walked around and saw lots of animals. There were apparently 4000 animals there from 800 species. You would see a big but there would by 10 varieties and the same for monkeys, dears etc. We actually saw a dear just after it was born. (An hour old). It was tiny and struggling to walk around- very cool. My favs were the hippo, rhinos, zebras, grizzly bear, feral bush pigs and pandas. Well there was a huge line to see the pandas and we couldn’t be bothered waiting at ... read more
