Tyrel and Delaney Mortensen: San Diego, July 2011

My parents gave Tyrel and I the opportunity to go on a vacation with them to San Diego a couple weeks ago. Let me just say that we had a blast! It was such amazing weather there. We had a hard time adjusting back to this blazing heat in Arizona. Our hotel was really cheap, but if you saw where we stayed, you would think we paid big bucks for our room. It was such a nice hotel! We had valet service, bell boys, etc. It was super nice inside, also. Plus, it was about 5 minutes or less from the San Diego Temple! That was my favorite part I think. It was sooo beautiful! Anyways, our plans for the week was to go to Seaworld twice, tour the USS Midway Museum, rent a boat, and go to the beach. We left Pima at 6 am and arrived in San Diego around 3:30 or 4. We rested for about an hour then headed to Seaworld. That was such a neat place to see at night. We saw the dolphin show, Shamu show, got to ride a couple rides and saw the fireworks. Then next day we went to the USS Midway. THAT was an amazing place. I have always been really interested in history and wars and all that stuff so I was just amazed the whole time. It was really interesting to see what lives those navy people had to go live. We took TONS of pictures from that. After the Midway, we rented a boat at Mission bay and we had lots of fun. I even drove the boat! It was kind of hard haha. On Wednesday, we went back to Seaworld for half the day until we drove to Yuma for the night then head home. At Seaworld we saw the coolest shows! My favorite one was the "Pet Rules" show. It was sooo cool. Even trained CATS were in there! We also saw a SeaLions show. That was also really cool! We had such a great time in San Diego and we hope to go back there soon! It was tons and tons of fun!
