Last minute trip to California

On December 27th we left Durango to drive to San Diego for a couple of days and then on to Joshua Tree National Park. We got as far as Phoenix the first night (500 miles) then got up the next day and headed for San Diego.

While in San Diego, we camped in a county park. We were in Lake Jennings county park which was surprisingly nice. I had expected that the park would be lousy and not kept up well, but it was nice. There were rangers on duty (at least 3 to cover the park) the sites were clean and bathrooms were adequate for a campground.

While in San Diego we went to three major places. San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld and the Torrey Pines Beach Area.

My favorite was the Torrey Pines area, but I think the kids really liked Seaworld. I'm gonna break up my posts on the trip into several so there aren't too many photos.
