My San Diego Trip   

During Christmas break 2014 I went to San Diego. I went to places

like Legoland, the beach, San Diego Zoo, and Sea World.  In Legoland there was a temporary snow area where I made snowballs and threw them at the different targets.  I also went snow tubing down a hill. Another fun event I did was climbing up the highest tower in Fun Town and pushing a button at the top.  I was scared in the middle but my mom and dad convinced me to climb all way to the top.   

My favorite ride was Driving School.  The ride had stop lights, stop signs, and pavement markings like on a real road.  It feels like you are in a real car but it is smaller.  At the end, you get a driver license.

At the beach I went in the water and collected rocks.  I also  made a sand castle with a moat and a channel.   I also tried to make a wall made from rocks around the castle but the wall couldn’t stand the waves hitting it.  So we just built the castle without the wall.
At the San Diego Zoo I went on a tour bus/tram that went all over the zoo. I saw a  peacock with a lot colors.  

The one with lots of colors is a boy to attract the girls.  The girls are brown.  I also saw big animals like elephants, polar bears and a hippopotamus.  I saw the hippopotamus swimming under water.  

I also  learned that polar bears live in the cold like in  Norway and elephants live in hot places like West Africa.  I also learned that they are both endangered animals.

At Sea World I saw and touched cleaner fish, reindeers, sharks, dolphins and stingrays.  At first I was scared when I put my whole hand in the touch pool full of cleaner fish.  The cleaner fish came to my hand and started nibbling on it. I felt ticklish so I kept pulling my hand out of the water.   

Near the end of the day we went to the Christmas Celebration area where I could drink hot chocolate, sled down a snowhill, and throw snowballs at targets.  If you hit the bullseye it will make a sound.

In conclusion, my San Diego trip was amazing and I want to go again!
