Things To Do In San Diego: April 13-14, 2011

Yesterday at the San Diego Zoo Safari park was a ton of fun, and also a test to see just how much I can do from my phone while chasing around my nieces. There are still limitations which is why you haven't seen many posts from me this week (cousin is in town) but still, I'm amazed at the technology literally at our fingertips. Thanks to everyone for entering the Ellie Goulding contest, and congrats to Vince S. who won the tickets. I guess the contest made me realize that there really aren't that many wild animals in the UK? After the Safari Park, we also stopped at Orfila Winery which was absolutely beautiful. If you haven't been up to San Pasqual/Escondido/Valley Center in a while, it's a great way to spend the day (just take it easy on the wine if you're gonna drive). The weather was absolutely perfect, too, so hit it before we get our gloomy and blazing months.
