Our SeaWorld Adventure!

We had another great weekend. This time it was C’s first trip to SeaWorld. We took Grammy’s new minivan on a family vacation to San Antonio. Unfortunately Poppy had to work. But we still had Aunt Frita, Silly Sean, our cousin A, Grammy, and of course Mom and Dad.

C fell asleep once we got there so she only got a quick glance of the Alamo on the trolley ride back to our hotel. Sunday morning we had breakfast at Lulu’s, (you should see the size of their Cinnamon Rolls! Carly is resting her hand on the one we brougth back with us.) and headed to SeaWorld.

Once we located the hazard lights (thanks parking attendant guy) and parked in preferred parking we were on our way into the park. C really enjoyed watching the shows but one of her favorite things was riding the mini Shamu roller coaster with Grammy. She even wanted to go again after the first ride, so she and Grammy rode in the front car. Although the picture doesn’t look like it, C had a great time on the ride. She loves adventure just like her daddy!

I think the highlight of our day was having lunch up close with some killer whales. We sat only a few feet away and had a special show just a few feet in front of us with the animals and there trainers. C was so excited and if you ask her, she will tell you that Shamu spit on her head!! They brought the whales out of the water and onto a deck to show them off and get pictures. C was standing right in front of Mike and I when this humongous whale comes gliding out of the water and right in front of us!! It caught her a little off guard but once Mike grabbed a hold of her she was in awe of the large animals. I bet that was something that none of us will forget! Thanks Grammy!
