Spring 2023 – Day 9

We are in San Diego and the port we have really been looking for to being at because we are going to the San Diego Zoo, supposedly one of the best in the United States.

Today, the weather was warn, but we still had to wear slacks so it was just ok.

As we were in a suite, we were able to leave the ship with the first group at 10:00am and we immediately took an Uber to the Zoo.

We walked around for an hour and then we had a driver with a golf cart take us on a 1-hour tour of the zoo.  It was fun and informative.

After our tour, we ate at a nice sit down restaurant inside the zoo and had a good lunch.

Then we continued to walk the zoo until 4:00pm when it was time to get back to the ship.

We had time to change and then to the suite lounge for a drink with new friends before we went to the show.  The show was a music show with the cast and it wasn’t that good, just ok.

We have met a lot of nice new people on this trip, including 2 couples that we sat next to several time at dinner.  We just about closed the restaurant talking with a great couple from Arizona who have traveled extensively – nice people.

Then it was onto the casino where Barb broke even and Ed won just a little.  A good, not great week in the casino and it is always nice to bring home more money that we started with.

Having a suite with a butler and all the extra services that we had was an amazing experience and we hope we are lucky enough to do it again on a future cruise.

We leave first off the ship at 7:30am, drive to Los Angeles Airport for an 11:00am flight to Atlanta and a 3 hour layover.

From Atlanta we take the last flight to Bloomington arriving at 10:36pm.

Thanks for following us in our blog.

Night and hope to see all really soon.  We miss family.
