After we went to Disneyland, we drove to San Diego and went to Sea World. The kids and I have never been there before. It was really fun. The Shamu show was amazing. The biggest whale they have is over 40 years old. They call her the trainer of trainers. When they have a new trainer, the whale will adjust her speed and tricks to fit the comfortability of the trainer. It really was a beautiful show. We sat in the "Soak Zone" but could only get at the top of that zone. That is where you have a great possibility of getting soaked! At the end of the show, the whales swim along the edges and swipe there huge tails to spray water up into the audience. I do have to say that we were lucky to not have sat any closer. When they say Soak Zone, they mean it!
The have a really fun roller coaster ride called Big Atlantis (I think) and of course the boys talked Grandma into going on it. At Sea World it's fun, because at the water rides, the bystanders can insert a quarter into a fountain thing and spray water at the people on the rides. At the river run (I don't have a picture), Corey did it at a group of people on the ride. Let's just say that one of the men on the ride didn't quite appreciate it and was a little upset. He showed Corey that he is "number 1" with his middle finger! Ha Ha! We had a great laugh at that one!
The Sea Lion show was absolutely hilarious! They did it to a Halloween theme and the trainers were dressed up. They did little movie bits from "scary" movies and the Sea Lions were cracking us all up. It really was a fun show if anyone ever goes to Sea World, you really need to go to this show.
Grandma Shirlee loves and collects anything pink flamingo. She was really looking forward to seeing the flamingos. We bought some flamingo food (don't know exactly what it was!) and got to feed the flamingos. Happy Birthday, Grandma!
There is a big pool thing that you can feed and touch the sting rays. They are very slimy feeling! We didn't buy any fish to feed them, but they say they just suck it right out of your hand and it is crazy feeling. Cayden took a while, but I think he finally touched one. Abby and Ryan were all over it!
We really had a great time at Sea World. I can't wait until we can go again and spend more time to see everything. They have so many animals to see. We saw tropical fish, crazy looking sea creatures, penguins, beluga whales, polar bears, flamingos, the Budweiser Clydesdales, dolphins, sea lions, walruses, etc.
