Boo at the Zoo (Santa Ana)

Brian H. October 27, 2014

This past Saturday we went to The Santa Ana Zoo's "Boo at the Zoo" trick-or-treat event.  It was @babyofawis' first time trick-or-treating so we figured that this event was perfect for her... get to see a few animals, walk around in a safe environment, and hopefully go home with a bag of goodies.

The mandatory wrist shot.

The $14 admission cost per person (for non-members, children under 2 enter for free) is almost not worth it if it was not for the few Disney sponsored gifts (books and Mickey Mouse pail)... by the time the event starts (5:30pm), most of the animals are already sleeping (or hiding) so you do not really get to enjoy much of the zoo.  Plus the zoo is incredibly small... their main attraction seems to be their 50 monkeys, which we did get to see a few of them and I somehow managed to take photos of everything but a monkey.

A wrist shot with @wifeofawis.

 My first time seeing a camel.

Trick-or-treat

Eagle

Ever wondered how big an eagle's nest is?  Wonder no more.

All-in-all, I think our daughter had fun seeing some of the animals in person for the first time (we plan to take her to the San Diego Zoo next month for her birthday so hopefully she enjoys that too), trick-or-treating for the first time, and coming home with a few Disney books.

@babyofawis found a few ladybug friends...

Her favorite item from this stash? The Mickey Mouse book...

If you are interested in going to this event, they have one last day this coming Thursday October 30, 2014.

Omega Apollo 11 50th Anniversary visits Malibu. The Hulk at the Avengers Headquarters. Color coordinated ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿค Slowly started to eat out again… not sure that I really missed dining at a restaurant that much ๐Ÿค”. Anyone else feel the same? They don’t make them like they used to. There is something special about white dial PAMs ๐Ÿ˜. Kabobs ๐Ÿข and watchesโŒš๏ธ.
Enjoying my new @montawatch (@everestbands) leather watch roll. Top quality all around, highly recommended. A pair of beautiful AP watches hides inside… Which color should I go with? โค๏ธ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’œ The Chanel J12 GMT. Happy Saturday everyone! Not your typical watch โ˜ ๏ธ One of my favorite PAMs, the 968.
Best part of the Prism watch case from @delugsstraps? The cover also serves as a pad!  Perfect place to lay your watches on once you take them out of the holders. 3 very different black watches ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค. Which one would you choose? I still think that this variant of the Speedmaster is gorgeous ๐Ÿ˜. My Luminor case trio... 911, 563, and 416. Safely stored in the @delugsstraps Prism case. Who knows which one of these three is a regular production model? I’ll stick to this Speedmaster ๐Ÿ˜‰.
