What to do when you have few hours in the morning? Stay in bed? Maybe :) But we decided to visit Zoo in San Diego. We spent there almost 4hours and still didn’t see everything. I would say we saw majority of animals but some of them were already taking their midday naps like this cute red panda :)

During our trip in San Diego I kept watching one show on Netflix called ‘Our Planet’. So after visiting the Zoo I felt like all the animals I saw in the show lives in California.

I was lucky because I had my 70-200mm so I could get really nice close-up shots of animals.

I do love taking photos of cactuses, especially in California. It seems that there no limits for different looks and heights they can grow. I’ve seen few that looks as old as an apple tree in my grandma’s backyard!

Meet Dwarf Mongoose and Rock Hyrax. No need to introduce Meerkat :)

Did you know that elephants walk on their toes? And they can live up to 70 y.o.! Quite impressive :)

Yes, California again :) I never thought I will say this, but(!) I really enjoy visiting San Diego city. There was something great about this city - great people, delicious food, lots of things to do and at the end all I wish was more time to see all the cool things this city has!

When we arrived map send us to a wrong place. We actually went inside that place and stayed there for a bit until Youn called the owner to see why there are still some stuff left from someone else…. ta-da-da…. the moment we realised we are in the wrong place we left it immediately. The house we rented was just across the street.

What do you do when you are hungry? You go to the place near by! San Diego is located next to Mexico boarder and they have lots of places that offer Mexican food. This little corner spot had really delicious Mexican dishes. I always feel like beginner when it comes to Mexican food. So many different names and I just get lost in what to order. This is where Youn comes in and makes decisions ;)

After we ate we went to Little Italy. That’s a nice neighborhood next to downtown. Has lots of unique places and shops to see. I don’t what it is but sun in California even in the midday looks good. I just love that light there!

Pelicans looking for a spot to watch sunset :)

I have to admit - I am in love with this jacket! Believe it or not I wore it every day :)

Selfie on a cliff and don’t question what’s in my pocket ;)
