Sea World

Our first full day in San Diego, we spent in Sea World! We arrived just before the park opened and we were so excited!!!! Okay, I was so excited! I felt the way you do when you walk into Disney for the first time. It's not quite the same but I was still excited. We started the morning with coffee and muffins and watched the backside of the breakfast with Shamu. So cool. It is truly amazing the things that they have trained those animals to do on command.
The Shamu show, Believe, was definitely the highlight of the day. We sat in the last row of the "soak zone" hoping to only catch minimal water, as it was only 67 degrees and the sun was just peeking from behind the clouds. Eric and the boys headed to the fourth row because they wanted to get wet....and they did!
We took in a 4D Sesame Street Imagination movie and then a live Halloween countdown.
The Pets Rule show was another favorite of ours. I think there was even a brief moment during the show where I thought, Oh, dogs are so great. We should get a dog. Then I thought of the stinky house, poopy yard, chewed toys...and I remembered dogs are not for me. Noah and I even took a ride on the Atlantis, which along with everything else in the park, totally soaks you! We did not quite make it to the last Shamu show and fireworks for the evening. But 8 hours was enough! Noah and Eric had upset tummys after a motion simulator. And in addition, Noah was gaining a fever. Currently, he is full of meds and experiencing his first ice bath from Bushia.
I'm so bummed I forgot to bring my camera cord to dump pictures onto my computer so pictures will have to wait until next week. :(
