Sea World

Lucy riding her first roller coaster! Which she loved and wanted more and was very upset to be too short to ride everything in the park.
We had planned a trip to Sea World for the beginning of Spring Break. We haven't been in about 5 years and Brother and Lucy didn't go or didn't remember.

We actually kept it a surprise until Sunday morning when I was loading a cooler and suitcases to go to church...they got suspicious! Everyone was thrilled. (S is in Utah visiting Dani, and J didn't want to come so she stayed with Emma ~ where they, BTW, had a great time riding bikes, watching movies and going shopping)

We had everything in the car and after church hopped in and headed down. The drive there was pleasant. The kids watched movies and ate snacks. It took longer than we expected but was a happy drive.

When we got to the hotel we had a suite, which we were not expecting! So Yea! The first night there some one's car alarm kept going off. Very annoying, but other than that we had no complaints. We were at the park when they opened and headed straight for the Shamu show! It was awesome. The whole day was wonderful. The weather was perfect, the smell of sunscreen was in the air, the shows were magical & funny, the rides were fun. The day went so fast and everyone LOVED it!!

After the Viva show, our favorite, the kids got to meet some of the acrobats!

At the petting tank at the end of the day.

The sea lion show, so cute and funny!

getting wet by the Atlantis ride! The reason it's all white behind her is that is a wall of water coming straight at her!!

4-D movie experience "Pirates". Lucy thought it was scary, Brother wanted to see it again :)

Bird Girl~ what H and Lu both want to grow up to be now.
