On day 5 we started the day in San Diego at the SD Zoo Wild Animal Park. Here they house endangered animals and bred them to boast population numbers. After breding and raising them they then try to release them into the wild. It was pretty interesting but very hot!

They the kids, minus Lucy and Savannah on a Rhino.

In the petting area.

Since they have the animals in areas as much like their normal habitat as possible the area is huge so they have a little train that you ride to see the animals up close. They pictures of above are from the train. The bottom picture is Cameron's parents with Grace and Maddi.

Blake getting up close and personal with a lioness.

They had a little water area that the kids found quickly and to say they were a little wet is an understatement, they were soaked. But they could have cared less because of how hot it was.

After we got back we once again headed to Disney. The picture above is just inside the front gates. We just went through and rerode some rides, including Buzz and Pirates.

We also took turns riding Indiana Jones since all of the kids were to small. The boys and Randi went first which is what the first picture is of. When they came back Katy, Randi and I headed down with a parent switch pass. Well right as our car was starting to go it stopped and the whole ride shut down. We were down there for an hour waiting for it to start again. They people with us were getting really upset because of the wait and they had kids waiting. We asked the girl what would happen if we got out of line and she said she would give us re entrance passes. We decided to take those and then the ride started. She said we could stay in line and she would give them to us any way. Well they were going to let us on the first car but then decided to let all the people stuck in the ride ride through again with no stop. This made sense but kind of annoying, we would have to wait longer. Well the people with us started yelling and swearing at the works about it. One car pulled up and some people opted to get off so the workers told them to get on. They then turned to us and kind of sheepishly said we could got since we had 7 kids waiting and they only had one. Really getting that upset over one kid who was with 2 grandparents. We had 7 kids with three men, I am surprised they were all still with them and alive when we got out. Tarzan's tree house was right next to the ride so Cameron took them all there which is were Blake is in the picture above. About 45 minutes into the ordeal Randi's phone worked for a second so she texted Cameron and they headed to Buzz where we met up with them. It was quite the excitement but we did finally get our ride.
