CA Trip- June 2012 Part 9 Aquarium & Safari Park

We spent the entire morning at the Legoland
Waterpark.  I have no photos, it was way too wet there.
But Kalia went down every waterslide in the park.
Maya mostly stayed in the small kids area and
loved the lazy river.  That afternoon, we said
good-bye to Erik, he was flying out the next morning.
Then we headed to the aquarium,
Lo & I and the four kids.

Maya's turn down the slide,
so much fun!

They had a bunch of areas where you could crawl under
and stick your head inside the tanks.

Maya checking out the lego sand castle.

The girls loved the rainbow coral

Maya's turn

We took one day off to "relax", well as much as you can
with 4 kids. The next day we headed to the Safari Park.
That's right Lo & myself and 4 kids ages: 6, 3, 2 and 2 months.
Yes, we are crazy and yes, it was challenging.

Giraffes!
 

It was all worth it for the elephants.
