We were in 'Baja', without being 'in' Baja!
Yesterday...
Yup, we were at the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park in San Pasqual... and walked through the Baja Gardens!
Have a nice weekend everyone!

Love that place, when we lived in SoCal we had zoo passes and went there more than the regular zoo. Always tried to take the tram at dusk when it was
cooling off and the animals were more active.

I would guess this is what happens after you get home?:

I had no idea they had a "Baja" gardens, David.
Haven't been there since the kids left, 7 years ago.

Yup Udo... it is the largest 'grove' of Boojum Trees outside of Mexico, I do believe...
The Baja Garden is just above 'Condor Ridge'... You can see much of the boojum forest from the Condor area, too.

We stopped there on our way back from Baja...
...some years ago with our kids - great place...
When we took the tram ride around the perimeter, it stopped next to the Mt sheep area - a steep, rocky side hill...we had a contest trying to see who
could 'count' the most sheep, as they blend in with the rocks, and the longer you look, the more you can spot - it's kind of spooky how well they are
'hidden' in plain sight!

According to my clock...anytime is \'BAJA TIME\' & as Jimmy Buffett says,
\"It doesn\'t use numbers or moving hands It always just says now...\"

The newer bus/ tram isn't as close to the steep rocky hillside as the rail train was... I think we see more animals now, then from the old train,
however.
