Last day in San Diego - loading up the van

Sea World



Atlantis







Blue Horizons - needed to showcase more of the world class animal performers and less of the second rate people performers













Shamu


























Feeding the sea lions



What a ham. This one was so loud and liked to do lots of tricks. He got most of the fish and never seemed to get full.



Shark tank















Sea Lions Live was really funny









Skyride



Beluga Whales




Pizza Bella in Old Town San Diego

We wanted to eat there the night before, but got caught up in Tijuana. We made sure to make time before we headed out of town.





I don't know about it being the best in America like they said, but it was really good


Logistics problems

I made a call to the hotel in Marina Del Rey to confirm our reservation and they said it had been canceled. I spent about an hour on the phone with an Expedia rep in India. She had some difficulty understanding simple things like the fact the hotel was in California and not Canada (the CA abbreviation threw her), but it eventually worked out.

When we decided to push our visit to Sea World to the day we were leaving town, we knew we weren't going to be able to enjoy the leisurely drive up the coast to LA that we had planned. Instead, it was a long drive and another post midnight arrival.
