San Diego Zoo

Today Scott and I went to San Diego Zoo and did some exploring. If you remember on my birthday, we went to San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Zoo place a significant part in our love story as Scott and I had our first real date in Singapore Zoo back in January 2011. So for my birthday we decided to visit the Safari Park they have in San Diego. As part of our annual membership pass, we can always go back to either San Diego Zoo Safari Park or at the San Diego Zoo which is a typical zoo. The entrance of the building is below and you can see the theme they have is still Christmasy.. "Jungle Bells"

We are not targeting to finish the whole zoo right now since we can always go back and we figured that to go here every weekends can be entertaining and it is a good exercise for both of us other than beating each other in Just Dance 4. So here is the map of the San Diego Zoo.

We started off by riding a skyfari tram which is like a mini skycable ride. Here is my picture.

The San Diego Zoo is obviously bigger than Singapore Zoo but I feel nostalgic because it reminded me so much of Singapore Zoo. The signs, the brochures, the cafeteria, the zoo shops, it was too similar to Singapore zoo that it made me think that they must have gotten the idea of their zoo from SD Zoo. That or I guess, all zoos are just alike with the theme, the zoo layouts, etc. The whole day was fun seeing those animals but I think my highlight of the day is that we get to see polar bears do their mating. Forgive me for the picture but it just dawned on me that this is the most memorable event I saw today in the zoo. Pictures below of the animals.
