Sea World!

We have absolutely loved our time at Sea World this summer. I got a free pass (special promo they do for teachers) and Logan got a season pass. We've only been twice so far, but I really hope to go at least two more times and I'd really love to go at night!

The best part of having a season pass and living so close is that you don't have to do it all in one day. This keeps us from walking all over the park, getting tired, and going crazy. Instead we can enjoy wherever we are, see a few shows, and come back for more the next time. (They are riding beluga whales in this shot. Kinda hard to see, but has been my favorite show so far.)


The dolphin cove was very crowded last time we were there so we didn't get to get many pictures. I think Maddy would have jumped in if we let her so she could swim with them. She is fearless in the water.





We don't have many pictures of the Sesame Street Bay of Play, but that is where we have spent the majority of our time. They have small rides like this carousel for younger kids, which Maddy loves every time.

Maddy was a little confused at first when I explained we were going to see sea lions and not real lions. She kept saying "roar" every time we talked about them, but I think she caught on after seeing them in the show with the walrus.


Lunchtime is always more fun when there are dancing sea creatures to watch.


Maddy even got to go to this past week with Paisley. The girls loved the shallow waters of the small pool at the Lost Lagoon and even made one lap around the lazy river with life jackets on. Neither were big fans of the life jackets so the squid slide made up for it.



We also fed alligators, but no pictures though since I was holding onto Maddy for dear life. Again, she would have jumped in if I didn't have my death-mommy-grip in motion. All in all it's been money well spent if you ask me and I hope to keep getting our money's worth throughout the summer. (It can't be over yet!) Maybe we'll plan another trip this week, who knows. Anyone want to join us?
