Spring Break Vacation Day 4

After breakfast we finished packing and checked out. Then we went to the USS Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum about 9:45am. It's a big ship. It lasted from 1946 to 1992? They gave us headphones to take self-guided audio tours. Tyrell, Mina and I went below deck to look around when Candi, Jaxon and Leila were taking ages on a ride/game they went on. It was really interesting to go through and see how everything ran, where they lived and ate, etc. We took too long ourselves and Candi was not happy when we come above deck.

We then went on the flight deck and viewed the planes, took pics, walked around. It was still a bit cool and breezy but the early morning rain went away before we went out like yesterday. We stopped at the store before leaving to go to the zoo.

Started walking around the zoo about 12:15pm. Erana had a map at first and was telling us what she wanted to see. She wanted to see the tiger first so we went in that direction. She had a good time. We saw most everything by walking around but missed a couple places because the day ran out. It closed at 7pm and we were there until then. Candi, Mina and Jaxon helped a lost little boy find his mother. We ate lunch or more like dinner at the Sydney Sizzle and I had fish and chips. It was next to the Aussie display of Koala bears, wombats and kangaroos.

We drove to Oceanside about 40 minutes north to stay at our next hotel, another Comfort Inn & Suites. The room had the 2 queens and a sofa bed but only one tv this time. It was still roomy and nice.
