Spring Break!

Well it has been a few days since I have posted, which I knew I would be a bit busy considering it is my spring break! Some days didnt seem as crazy or busy as they should have been or I just dont remember. Other days became highlights, like this pasted Wednesday.

Steph and I drove down to Sacramento and went to their zoo, not the biggest one by anymeans but it was closer/easier and cheaper than going to the San Fran zoo. We planed it out so we would check out the zoo and maybe go to one of the malls as well as dinner.

The day went well after we finally arrived in Sac, as the drive to was a bit sketchy. Just kept having tractors cutting me off as Im going 75mph because well thats totally safe to do! as well as a bad morning pit stop for food... just wasnt going well buuuuut once we arrived at the Zoo the day became a whole lot better.

This beauty was one of my highlights at the zoo, it is the snow leopard, she was just so beautiful! Not to mention she was ready for her close up :) Her tail was SO FLUFFY! I wanted to pet her but steph said that wasnt a good idea -_-

I have a feeling this photo will be too small to really see whats going on but hey I can try and tell you... on the left side you can kind of see this small little creature which is a type of Fox(tunic I think it said?) which is SO cute, has giant ears and just so adorable... it happens to be in the same cage as an Aardvark. Which the little fox guy went into the  aardvarks hole and woke him up and told him to come take photos, so cool!

Steph loves her Giraffes and she did get some photos with the real deal(her phone had the better ones) but this one was still super cute so I figured I would share it with you guys :) Pretty cool metal work which they had a few others around the park.

 Wasnt able to get the best picture of this Lemur chilling in his "hottub" but it was so funny and way too cute not to post. One of his friends came and sat with him as well, it was like a tire or planter and they laid in it with their arms spread out like it was a hot tub. So cool! I love these little guys.

Finally had to show off this sweet tshirt I saw, it was a kids size so I couldn't buy it...I wonder if more Zoos have this? like is it a normal print they just change the zoo name on the bottom? either way it was awesome.

Finally after all the zoo fun we went to the local mall, which was kind of a let down and pretty small to be honest but it was more so just to kill time until we got hungry. Once that happened we ended up going to dinner.... At the Melting Pot :D Which I have to say thanks to Sam/Marie because without them I would have NO idea what this place was.

To make it easy, its a fancy fondue place, which is amazing! We did the 4 course meal. Which means the cheese(appetizer) salad, main course and amazing chocolate dessert to finish it off.
For our main dish we did the seafood trio and the Classic, which I always forget how much I dislike cooked fish these days... So Steph had to eat the tuna and salmon but she was fine with that lol

The dessert was milk chocolate, peanut butter and caramel in which we dipped bananas, strawberry's, rice crispies, brownie bites, cheese cake and well lets just say it was so worth the wait and live up to the hype for steph.

I've also tried cleaning up the garage/guest house so we can turn it into a gym/game room set up which has lead to today, Sol came over and helped me install our punching bag, might have been a bit more difficult to do but hey it works and lets hope the roof doesn't come falling down!

As for the rest of the vacation, I did do some relaxing but we also did some more wedding shopping and steph had some back work done. Almost time to go back to class but it has been a solid spring break. Add in that tomorrow is my Tux day! Going with my groomsmen to try on tuxedos :D


I hope you all had a great day and hope for the best in the next.
