Sea World

On Saturday we went to Sea World.  It was really the perfect place to go with Caden.  He loved all of the shows!

At the entrance with Shamu. 

They had a fun Sesame Street area with the perfect rides for Caden.  Matt was lucky to get to go with him since the spinney rides make me sick! 

We loved the dolphin show and actually ended up watching it twice! 

 Of course we had to see the Shamu show too.  They are really amazing animals.



Big Sea Turtles.  Matt and I go to snorkel with one bigger then this when we went to Hawaii! 

We saw the Clyde and Seamore show which is very funny! 


They had some big scary sharks. 

These penguins were so huge I don't know how they even walked! 

 The Polar Bear


The Beluga Whales are so pretty and peaceful to watch. 

We saw a showed called Pets Rule.  Sea World adopts animals from the humane society and trains them to perform in the show.  It was really fun.


The whole time we were there Caden was dying to go jump.  There was always a line, so we just ended up waiting, and they are only allowed to jump for 2 minutes.  When the two minutes was up the lady would yell "times up", and all of the kids would come out.  Well all of the kids except for Caden that is.  He went further away, and would not come out.  I had to go in and get him.  It was so embarrassing! 

We fed the Sea Lions these gross little fish, and the birds stole them out of our hands just like I remembered from when I came as a kid. 

We saw a 4D Sesame Street movie that Caden enjoyed even though he wouldn't leave the glasses on.  The 4th dimension is touch, so we got sprayed with water and felt wind blowing. 

We also saw the night Shamu show called "Shamu Rocks" and they played music during the show.  It was all dark, and it was fun because the crowd was pretty rowdy. 

Leaving the park.  We had to get Caden a Shamu of course!
