Saturday Kurt and I spent the day in San Diego. It was kinda a late birthday/schools done and a Kurt passed Stats celebration (we had found out the day before) We started the day off with breakfast, which after enjoying a nice meal went back to my car to realize I had a flat tire. bummer. Kurt took care of business and put the donut tire I had in my trunk on, and carefully drove my car to firestone. A small delay and kind of annoying but oh well. We arrived at the Wild Animal park around 12. Kurt had never been and it had been YEARS since I had been there. We decided to do a photo caravan tour where you get to feed griaffes and rhinos, however the normal 2 hour tour was sold out, so we opted for the 1 hour. It was perfect I think any longer would have been too much. We were able to feed griaffes but not rhinos. It was fun and totally worth it. Best part of both of our days. 
Me feeding the griaffe. This guy was only 2 years old but still about 10 feet tall! My hand was covered in griaffe slober after the feeding but it was soo cute.
Kurt feeding the griaffe. This is one of my favorite pictures. 
The elephants! There were 3 new babies in the last 2 months. This was one of them.
Such a big gorilla!! I loved watching them play and interact with each other.
ya... I am pretty much a gorilla. 
Me and Kurt towards the end of the day... We were pretty worn out by the end. :)It was nice to have a fun relaxing day together after the craziness of finals, work, and life.
Oh and below are just little clips of the gorillas and elephants. I apologize now for zooming in on the elephants back side.

What a fun day! I'm so glad you got to feed the giraffes. We did that with the girls at the SB zoo and I thought it was really cool. I like Kurt's picture too. I think he looks like a classic 80's rock star. Like the bass player in the band...he needs a hat to finish the look. Maybe he could play the keyboard that you wear like a guitar!!! Anyway, glad your day wasn't ruined by a flat tire. :)
Nice! (Except for the flat tire...). We might be coming down this weekend and going to the Wild Animal Park next Monday. I love that place and it's been years since I've been too. Looks like you had fun!
That looks like such a great day! Giraffes are the coolest. That's a great pic of Kurt. Bummer about the tire delay, but it looks like it all worked out ok. I hope we get a chance to take the kids there when we go to San Diego in the fall.
How fun is that?! Zoo's are fun no matter how old you are! Brad and I had a blast at the zoo in idaho falls! I love that you got to feed the giraffes, what a cool thing, and the drool, gotta love it! ha Sorry about the flat, Brad got one the other day! Man, darn tires..
