| The Lion Exhibit |

|
| This polar bear had so much energy in the morning! |

|
| Here he is playing with a giant ball in the water. |
| Later that afternoon, he settled in for a nap. |

|
| We had to wait in line for 45 minutes to see him. |

|
| A Reindeer! This nice lady explained to us why |

|
| Santa's Reindeer were all women. |
| This is one of two Rhinos at the San Diego Zoo. |

|

|
| Giraffe Exhibit |

|
| These guys were pretty cute. They acted more like |

|
| kittens than ferocious jungle cats, though. |
| These guys were at the zoo temporarily while they |

|
| were being relocated. I was half expecting the Crocodile Hunter to pop out at -any- time! |
| A huge Galapagos tortoise! |

|
| The picture really does not do it justice. This thing was -huge-! |
| Another bear from the Sun Bear Exhibit. |
