{Day 4}

The final day of our trip was spent at Sea World! We went with Danny, Lesli, Ashton, and Grandma and Grandpa Ashton.


We got there a little before it opened and went down to watch Shamu and the other whales swim around. The kids loved watching the whales and seeing how huge they are!




Next we fed the dolphins. You got to touch them first and then feed them. Fun!!


Then we went over to pet the stingrays. The boys were nervous at first but then had fun seeing how slimy they felt.


We went to all the shows, they were so fun!! We were there on a Saturday so it was pretty crowded but it still was lots of fun!

The boys especially loved the raft ride where you were soaked every time.


The sharks were a big hit as well....sorry my flash blacked them out. Kade LOVES sharks, he has a shark shirt he wants to wear all the time as well as a book he carries around all day. So seeing them made him pretty excited!


Of course we hit up the kiddie rides as well!


For the last ride of the day we went on the raft ride again and were SOAKED!


Sea World was fun, fun! The bad part of the trip was when we went to leave Danny & Lesli's van wouldn't start. They had to have it towed and ended up driving home with Cody's parents with plans to fly back and get it when it was fixed. It ended up being just a little problem that was under warranty...but what a pain!

We left the park and drove home...getting home at 11:30 pm. There is nothing nicer then coming home and being in your own bed - now matter how fun the vacation was!! We had a ball though and are planning to go again next year. Anyone else is welcome to come, how fun would that be??

WOW! Sounds like a fun vacation! We have talked about taking the kids to disneyland soon. Especially since Felicia is back in California.

That just stinks that we missed you guys! We went to the San Diego Zoo last year and I really wish that we would've done Sea World instead...it looks like a really fun place. I'm so glad you guys got away and had such a good time!

How fun Brooke! We didn't get to take our kids up to Sea World. We'll have to make a point of it when we visit.
