San Diego for Our 5th Wedding Anniversary

Mindy and I decided to take a long weekend and fly down to San Diego to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary. We went a couple weeks before Christmas, and apparently, we also went during the only two days of the year it rained. We still had a great time, though, checking out the historic Gaslamp District, the San Diego Zoo, and La Jolla (pronounced La Hoya).

My favorite part of the trip was when the aliens attacked:

The zoo was very foggy and wet, but we saw everything with no lines and we could spend as much time as we wanted with each animal. We also had the skytram to ourselves:

This is Balboa Park, which is a collection of different museums and vendors just outside the zoo. We walked through it at dusk:

The last day of our trip we drove out to La Jolla to see the coast. Again, it was rainy, but it was beautiful:
