We are in Escondido, California, visiting our daughter and her husband Andrew. We are staying at the Escondido RV Resort, which is one of the nicer sites we have visited.
We will be staying here until after New Years when we will head back to Las Vegas for some doctor appointments. Unfortunately, there is not enough room to raise my ham antennas so I am using our Jeep mobile antennas.
While here, we are about 9 miles from the San Diego Zoo, Wild Animal Park, so we did visit and enjoyed our tour. This park is part of the San Diego Zoo, where they try to make larger enclosures for the various animals. The animals are placed to place aggressive animals away from the none aggressive. The largest enclosure is over 60 acres.
One of the enclosures is the aviary, which is quite-a-bit smaller then it’s counter part at the San Diego zoo.
They no longer have the train which tours the 60 acre enclosure, but we were able to capture pictures of some some of the free roaming animals from our seats on the park’s tram. They do not allow visitors to walk in the enclosures, though, you can purchase tickets to ride in a duce-and-a-half open truck inside the enclosure.
Once leaving the tram, we were able to view other animals in 3 and larger acre enclosures.
