We went to SeaWorld. I originally didn't want to use any of our days there, but Aviva really wanted to. As usual she was right. I'm really glad we went. Even though we left relatively early, they definitely have a lot going on.
More pictures and video below:
First we went to the
Stingray Lagoon. At first Andi didn't want to touch the stingrays, even though she has in the past, but then she did.
We watched the
Turtle Trek. It was really cool. After walking through an aquarium you go into a dome shaped room with a panoramic 3D movie about an actual sea turtle's life.
Eason and I went on
Kraken. Eason said it was one of the best roller coasters he's ever been on.
We watched the
Dolphin Feeding.
We watched the
Blue Horizons show at the Dolphin Theatre.
Eason and I went on the
Manta. Another very good roller coaster.
After we had lunch at the Voyagers Smokehouse Eason and I watched the
California Sea Lions at Pacific Point Preserve. We learned the difference in flippers, claws, and ears between seals and sea lions.
We all saw
Clyde & Seymore Take Pirate Island at the
Sea Lion & Otter Theatre. It was very funny.
We went on
Antarctica: Empire of the Penguin, then we went to the
Shark Encounter.
At
Shamu’s Happy Harbor Andi went on
Sea Carousel,
Swishy Fishies. She was very happy to be able to go un so many rides all by herself.
When Eason got there he went with her on the
Shamu Express,
Ocean Commotion, and
Jazzy Jellies.
We saw the
One Ocean show at Shamu Stadium. Half way through the show they had to stop due to inclement weather. Since it was pouring we hung around in the stadium. It was amusing how many people evacuated their
splash zone seats to avoid the rain. After at least 30 minutes, during which they aired shows on SeaWorld's animal protection program, they resumed the show.
We got back to the hotel in time for more fun in the pool. We got dinner there and Eason had his 8th
burger.
