These were TWO very excited little boys about their FIRST trip to Sea World! (Aunt Lynda--see their Drillers shirts? Cute, huh?) And I'll admit, it was my first time back to Sea World in about 22 years--it had been 23 years for Cecil! Can you believe that?
We saw Penguins and Puffers (which the boys thought were hysterical)!
Seals were next on the list, and let me tell you, as beautiful as they are on TV, they are UGLY in person!
Of course, the boys had to check out the sharks in the outside tank too!
Next was a kiddie roller coaster and the boys enjoyed that as well.
One thing I loved about Sea World is that there aren't nearly as many people there as there are at other theme parks AND the kids can go on the rides by themselves! Not only that, but you can put them in line by themselves, and wait at the Exit side and still see them the entire time!
The boys LOVED riding Ocean Commotion and did so about 6 or 7 times that day! They rode it over and over again!
You can't go to Sea World without seeing the STAR of the show! SHAMU! The boys really liked the Shamu show too!
The stingrays were close by at this point, so we took the boys over to "pet" them. I definitely had NO desire to do such, so I remained the photographer! ha!
The dolphin show was one of the last things we did/saw on Friday and WOW! I remember it being fun when I was younger, but they have really vamped up the show! It was AWESOME! The boys enjoyed the dolphin show WAY more than the Shamu show--I think because it had more action and such.
Before we left the park, they saw one more ride they wanted to do--some sort of Critter Crawler or something like that...it was a kiddie ride, but looked like it made your tummy still go topsy-turvy! They wanted to ride it by themselves (which was fine with me!)--
Getting ready for the ride....

I'm so glad that you guys had so much fun!! Love the pictures (can't believe that you were able to get both of them to smile, but I guess excitement will do that to you) :)

I have not been to Sea World since Tyler was in 2nd grade,(he's in 8th grade now). My Kaelyn has never been, unless you count the time we took Tyler just before he was 2 and I was pregnant with her. Glad you all had a good time. Love the pictures of your boys on that last ride!
ReplyDeleteI've never been there and I know I would absolutely love it!
