Adventures of Link: SoCal Still Burning

Fires are still tearing across Southern California, charring Malibu, Orange County and San Diego. Malibu's famous Castle Kashan was destroyed and the LG Beach House was damaged in the fires. But all the destruction isn't scaring "Californication" star David Duchovny, who's yet to evacuate his place. David Geffen is putting up firefighters for free at his Malibu Beach Inn.

In San Diego, most attractions have closed down as residents evacuate. The zoo has suffered some damage, and officials say the animals "are alert but are not showing behaviors of concern. The animals seem to know when they are in immediate danger and when they are not." Meanwhile Qualcomm Stadium is becoming a latter-day Superdome, as locals and tourists alike wait out the fires burning all around them.

Update

I should probably add that it's the Zoo's Wild Animal Park that's been damaged, not the Balboa Park location.
