Our young family craves adventure. It began when my husband and I fell in love backpacking through Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia and Fiji. We got bit by the travel bug bad. When our son was born, we knew we wanted to make travel and adventure part of our family life. We now spend our weekends looking for exciting local excursions, and save our pennies for larger national and international trips. Each time we grab our belongings and head for the car, we announce to our son “Adventure is out there,” a phrase lovingly stolen from the movie “UP”. Our son is presently 1 years old and may not be completely aware of what is going on, but we hope that by spending our family time seeking out new places to see, that our love for adventure will be passed onto him. This is a story of our trips and the family travel lessons learned along the way.

The Petting Zoo

Last weekend we joined our friends at Zoomars Petting zoo in San Juan Capistrano. We had such a fun time watching Wade and his buddy N playing with the animals. These boys provided more entertainment than we were prepared for. We started the day with Guinea Pigs and Bunnies. Neither boy was too sure about these little creatures. Their faces were priceless.
I think they wondered what these furry little things were.
We then headed over to see the Zedonks. Yes that's a word. It is a half zebra half donkey.
The boys decided that playing on the park bench was the most fun!
I thought the train ride was pretty cool.
The Goats were acting like they were starving but they didn't look like it.
Our last stop was the pony rides. N seemed to really like this part but it was not popular with Wade. If he wasn't tearing up he was trying to put on a brave face.
San Juan Capistrano is such a cute town. Next time we decided to explore more of what it has to offer.
