Spring Break part 4

Thursday we spent at the fantastic Sea World!

We opened the gates and rushed to feed the dolphins first thing.  Feeding the dolphins and sea lions was an experience the kids won't soon forget!  BS and I loved watching their anticipation and excitement when the gentle sea creatures ate their fish.  They were able to pet them too!

 

And then of course we saw the Shamu show, the dolphin and pilot whale show, and the Seymour and Clyde show.  All were as awesome as I remember.  {Except, the trainers don't swim with the killer whales anymore}.  I kept waiting for that part.

 Then it was off to ride Atlantis, a roller coaster/boat ride combo.  So fun.  We got drenched riding it over and over as well as the river rapid ride.  They had some cute little rides for little Quinny too!

Quin loves her shamu stuffed animal.  Calls it "whale with a tail"

Sam got drenched by the whales from sitting in the "splash zone"

 Sharks, penguins, sting rays, beluga whales, polar bears, star fish, and a HUGE pink walrus!

What a great day!
