Day 39 - Thursday 27 January 2000
The shuttle bus for the Ramada Hotel picked us up from the station and took us to Old Town and hotel which I think is the best we have stayed in so far for its size, coffee maker, microwave, fridge and king-size bed and a balcony looking over an internal courtyard with fountains, swimming pool and outside tables and chairs.
Within walking distance there are a great many places to shop and dine with unique products and a quaint atmosphere. Bazaar del Mundo, Fiesta de Reyes, the Old Town Market and many boutique shops offer a variety of uncommon gifts.

San Diego was first discovered by Juan Cabrillo in 1542 but he named it San Miguel since that day was the feast of Saint Michael the Archangel. However 60 years later in 1602 another Spaniard visited the port and renamed it San Diego. Vizcaíno (Spanish explorer) and was celebrating the day of the glorious San Diego and a hut was built and mass was said in celebration of the feast of San Diego.
The San Diego Zoo is a zoo in Balboa Park, San Diego, California housing over 3,700 animals of more than 650 species and subspecies.
