I'm one of those weird people that doesn't get excited about zoo's. (Animal Kingdom is my least favorite Disney park.) The St. Louis zoo is consistently rated in one of the top few zoo's in the nation, and I've been there more times than I can count, so I usually don't get excited about them elsewhere. However, I had fun looking at your photos! I especially loved the one with the kids on the metal rhinoceros. That one's a keeper! (And I love Peter's hair. Funny to see that he kept them in so long!)
I like the Gorilla gifs too. I've often visited the St. Louis zoo just to visit the primates. The young ones are indeed a lot of fun to watch.
Thanks for sharing the story behind Stone. Sounds like a cool place! Too funny about the warning for the ""parental units".
Great photos of the food! I just finished lunch, but I'm wanting one of those lamb pita's. Looks really good! The garden outside looks fun, and beer samples after the tour? This just gets better and better! And I just got my hopes up for a second.... I'm heading to LA/Palm Springs this weekend. I just checked their locations in SoCal, and unfortunately the one in LA will be too far north from where we'll be. Darn!!!
The Ballast Point brewery looks interesting too.
Sounds like your second full San Diego day was a lot of fun! Looking forward to reading about your DL experiences!
