San Diego Zoo today. We made the mistake of starting our day with the snakes, spiders and scorpions… I spent the rest of the morning jumping every time something touched me! Not so clever. They have a baby hippo, and its mum was pushing it around the water in a way that reminded me of the […]

Our hotel is pretty crappy… but we have an awesome location on Sunset Boulevard, so we don’t regret choosing it. Thanks to the GPS system we hired […]
