Buy the pass that gets you into the Zoo and Safari Park! Well worth it!

“The most difficult decision to make when planning a vacation to San Diego is determining what things to do and see among the region's vast and diverse variety of attractions. From the theater to wild animals we've got something for everyone.”

Joshua Tree National Park

http://www.nps.gov/jotr/index.htm

“Viewed from the road, this desert park only hints at its vitality. Closer examination reveals a fascinating variety of plants and animals that make their home in this land shaped by strong winds, unpredictable torrents of rain, and climatic extremes. Dark night skies, a rich cultural history, and surreal geologic features add to the attraction of this place. Come see for yourself!”
