Sea World

On Tuesday we headed to Sea World.  The girls loved it the last time that we went a couple of years ago.  They loved it once again.  It was funny because my sister took her kids to Disneyland and Ady kept looking at me and saying "This is so much more fun than Disneyland."  She has never been to Disneyland so she doesn't know what she is missing there but for this trip I was glad we were at Sea World and they enjoyed it:)

Sea Turtles

Our girls were terrified to go into the shark encounter...especially Ady.  We had to fight her to get her in there.

Stockton watching the sharks with Papa...probably his favorite person right now.

The dolphin show called "Blue Horizons"

Pet's Rule...this is probably the girls favorite show. 

Riding the Elmo rides.  They thought they were so big because they got to go on some rides.

The shamu show called "One Ocean".  I was a little disappointed in this show.  It isn't quite as exciting as it was when the trainers could be in the water with the whales but it is still cool to see.

Ady & Emma touching the star fish.

Watching the preview for the Sea Lions Live show...I think that this is my favorite:)

Stockton LOVED the sky ride.  He stood most of the way and looked out the windows.

Emma was a little more nervous but did really good.

Ady kept asking me all day when we were going to see the flamingos.  She was very excited about them!

The kids all had to have their own maps and show us around the park. 

Sadie and Stockton enjoying their suckers.

We had a great time at Sea World and the kids did great.  There are some fun roller coasters their that we got to go on.  We took Ady on the Journey to Atlantis and we scared her to DEATH.  She was NOT a fan of the ride.  I had forgotten what it was like and since she was tall enough we decided to try it.  My nephew who is the same age LOVED it but Ady was terrified and when it finally pulled into the place where you get off she thought we were going again and became quite hysterical!  

There is a new ride called the Manta that was really fun and we went a couple of times.  By the time we made it on the Ship Wreck Rapids it was starting to get cold but we had fun trying to dodge the water!  We stayed almost the entire day and the kids were exhausted by the end!
