Day Twelve and Thirteen: San Diego

By morning we were ready to leave the desert well and truly behind us and a few people were looking a little worse for wear to say the least!  We stopped quickly for snacks and water before continuing onto our final camp site, in sunny San Diego!  As always the drive was long but I never find them painful - there's always something to do or something pretty to look at so it's rarely boring!

Me on the Zoo bus :D
When we arrived at our camp site (Campland on the Bay, love it!) we set up our tents and what not and then my group was on cooking again.  We made a curry tonight and it was delicious as always!  (Totally won the best meal award...).  We headed down to a local beach after dinner for some 'beach olympics' which were so much fun.  Sprint races, drama scenes, bury the tour leader...you know the drill :p and then back to camp for a camp fire and smores (roasted marshmellows between bikkies with choc...my fav!).  We were all pretty tired out afterwards so it wasn't long before everyone was in bed.

Beach Olympics
The next morning after breakfast we all loaded into the van and got off at our respective 'stops'.  As always there are plenty of options to suit everybody in the group and you just pick one or design your own plan for the day.  Some people went to Seaworld, others to Old Town or the beach, and I went to the zoo with two other Treksters.  San Diego zoo, being one of the most famous in the world, was another highlight and we spent virtually the whole day there.

After our final meal (nuuuuuuuuuuu :'(  ) we played flip cup and a few other games, headed to the beach to watch more fireworks from Seaworld and just spend our final night together.  Being our final night we tried to do a group effort and collapse one guys tent who went off to bed before the rest of us but he woke up mid way through...awkwarddd :p (Sorry Neil! :p).
