going to san diego zoo today need some tips

hey guys im off to the san diego zoo today and if anyone has some tips, I still have some time left here at the hotel room before I go, if you have any last minute tips let me know, im really looking forward to this. maybe I'll come back tomorrow if I think I didn't get a lot done today...fire away

the lens I have are the kit lens for my wide shots since I'm broke at the moment lol and my sigma 70-200 2.8

I have a canon 75-300 but, I don't think its gonna get that much action today..know knows

ok, i'm off to the shower, lol...

The 70-200 & kit lenses should be fine (with the 70-200 getting 80% of the use). Enjoy your day, its a fantastic zoo. The first time we had our kids there, they were most impressed by the outdoor escalators, something they had never seen before.....go figure

lol sugarzebra hehehe, well i'm here celebrating my first born on his/her way. he won't be able to remember this trip but I'll show the pictures to him later on hehe

....yea i'm hoping its a boy :P

Since you're there might as well enjoy walking around the Balboa Park, too.

Bringing this post back to life, LOL. Can't wait to go. I'm taking the Canon 100-400mm, I can't wait to see the photographs that I get. It will be my first real shootout with my Canon XSi and my first time using "L" glass! Beautiful shots. I like #1 the best.
