The girls got to experience a new theme park... Sea World. Of course it's not new to Erin, "White" Grandma or I, but its been a long time. Both girls did great, but I don't think the animals held their attention like that mouse can!
The first thing we did was make reservations for dinner for 5pm at 10:00am... Trust me, just wait the for photos down below.
I think we all loved the dolphins best
This was a great show, they let the trainers swim with the dolphins... (Don't take that the wrong way, but at some point, you got to get back into the water.)
Four happy girls... It's tough to get them all to look the same way.
Some Shamu pictures
5 month old "baby" shamu, kind of cute except it will eat you
Elizabeth did finally touch one and describes them as spongy
While the girls played we sat in the shade and enjoyed the peacefulness.
Looking at the dolphins underwater
Like Red Grandpa says...those are not smiles on their faces!
I can't look at a manatee without thinking of an old Dr. Katz cartoon where the manatee is on Oprah and everyone is telling it how fat it is and needs weight watchers while the manatee tries to explain how it needs the layer of blubber to be warm in the winter...I don't know why it still makes me laugh but the poor things are just huge and eat nothing but lettuce...really
Finally, one of the best parts, dinner underwater at Sharks Underwater Grill. Da na, da na, da na da na... That's right we ate dinner with LIVE sharks. No one had seafood, it just wouldn't be right.
Anna Kate enjoyed the dinner the best! If I had to chose the one and only time my child has ever fell asleep at the table from total exhaustion I'll take this time. We enjoyed every minute and this little sleeping beauty just helped out with the calmness.
