First time back at the regular zoo since becoming members. The new children’s area is so fun and these monkeys are have the cutest old men faces!

LE

LE
J and A joined. Love hanging w/ their parents!

LE
Daddy raved about this donut burger. Not too shabby for zoo fare.

LE
They had chicken and waffles, too.

LE
Hey, Skyfari, it’s been awhile.

LE
Quick game of Sticks.

LE
The polar bear punched my eye. ;-P

LE
Still one-eyed.

The night show was very well done — the costumes, music, choreo, everything!

LE
Late night card trading after the zoo closed. :))

Surfin’ in the USA

LE
Kicked off summer break with surf camp!

He was standing up after the first day… Maybe knowing how to snowboard helps?

All sun-blocked and sun-kissed after a long week in the ocean. :)

Had J over for an overnighter… lots of ramen, gaming and donuts.

Recovery boba and waffles. :P

LE
Father’s Day with some of Daddy’s fave thigns: tacos, birria ramen, donuts and durian!

LE
Sweet ‘lil Chinese poem. :)

LE
The SD County Fair was back in full force. It’s def a bit different and smaller than the TX State Fair… had more of a hometown feel? The boys enjoyed it! Also, his previous Mandarin teacher had a booth for origami in the craft hall.

LE

LE

LE
They did this ride like 3 times!

LE

LE

LE
Z vs. E. E won!

LE
And then they gave the prize to the other E that didn’t play. ;-P

LE
Got that close that one eye concentration going.

LE
Spent a long time in the gem hall…

LE
They didn’t eat anything too crazy.

LE
And then came across this at the end of the night. Say what?

Let the good (summer) times roll!

Bombs Away

Summer has arrived… though we’re still in school.
LE

LE
Time for lots of pool time and brushing up on our swimming. :)

LE

LE
Then Ah-Gong, Ah-Ma, Auntie Glo, along with Uncle Dan came to SD after spending some time in TX. Took them on an evening stroll on Coronado Island overlooking DT SD.

LE
Playing “sticks” w/ Uncle Dan while waiting for seafood in Point Loma. E goes WAAAAAY back w/ Uncle Dan. Like back until the minute he was born. ;-)

LE
Picnic @ Cabrillo. And Auntie Glo “stealing” fries. :) J/K. E is sharing!

LE
Really enjoyed showing off our city to the fam!

LE
Glo is happy they brought her wheelchair along as she hates walking…

LE
Tidepools were closed but grabbed a pic right by them.

LE
Grandparents were tired so we took them back and then brought Uncle Dan on one of our fave hikes @ Black’s Beach.

LE
Who can guess what’s special about this pic? Hahahahaha.

LE
Of course we had to take them to Children’s Pool for the seals.

LE
Caught Mama and baby seals.

LE
Then Dad came along…

LE

LE

LE
We actually had never done Sunny Jim’s sea cave so we thought it’d be fun to try with Uncle Dan.

LE

LE

LE

LE

LE

LE
We got some fresh coconut juice w/ coconut meat…

LE
And fed some to the squirrels.

LE
Took Uncle Dan to the driving range where E practices.

LE
E teaching Uncle Dan how to chip.

LE
Then we played mini golf. Hole in one on this one!

LE

LE
Afternoon picnic by the beach.

LE
They loved the tacos here (more than TX!).

LE

LE
Tree climbing is another beloved past time.

LE
They stayed with us and a few hotels around town to get a good feel for the city. Hanging out with them by the hotel fireplace.

LE

LE

LE
Playing sticks again.

LE
Grandpa caught a sisters moment. :)

LE
Took them to right near the border as Uncle Dan was pretty interested in seeing the wall.

LE
As close to Mexican tacos as you can get!

LE
Uncle Dan approved.

LE

LE
Ah-ma loved this dish — all her fave things!

LE
The time went by too fast. Then it was farewell. ‘Til we see you all again… here or Asia! (They’re used to be all masked up in TW so we played it safe as well).
