Sea World

Today we had to take a bus off the resort to Sea World. Thankfully it was very easy and had no problems getting there. It was another sunny day and great to be outside. We were greeted by these bright flamingos as we walked in. Next were the giant sea turtles.

Then we made it to the sting ray tank, and we could feed them. Charlie and Jeff were the brave ones as the sting rays practically jumped out of the water when they figured out you had food. They can really splash!

The dolphins were very active and came right up to where we were standing. I believe Charlie even touched one. The kids loved to watch them swim and splash.

Then a few brave decided to ride the water ride as the line was very short early in the day. Jeff is in the back row, yellow shirt, with his hand up in the air. As you can tell, he loved it!

Tim in the front, Charlie and Karissa in the second row. Karissa didn't want to get her hair wet so she used to shirt to wrap it up. This is right after the big drop. No one got too wet on this ride. Then they went and rode the very big rollercoaster.

We got to fed the sea lions too. They were cute to watch. They were very good at catching the fish too when you threw them.

We went to the Dolphin and Whale show and that was amazing! Very entertaining. Everyone loved it! The trainers swam and rode the dolphins. They even had tropical birds as part of the show and high dive jumpers. It was fantastic!

And of course you must go to the Shamu Show at Sea World. It is amazing how they can get these huge whales to do tricks.

And then we found a kids area that had rides just for them. It was perfect!

And we even saw polar bears, walrus, penquins and much more.

We ended the day by ordering pizza and celebrating Uncle Kelly's birthday! Lucky boy, he got to have his birthday over vacation!
