Spring Break 2009-Day 2 "Getting Wet in SeaWorld"

We got an early morning start on day 2 to SeaWorld.


Alex, Jorge and Carsen waiting to get into the park.


First ride of the day: Atlantis. It wasn't even open yet when we got there. The boys were ready to get wet.


Here they come.


Almost there...


Through the water and everyone's wet.


But they are happy.


Next up was The Shamu show.


While we enjoyed the show, Rod was conducting busines...as usual. Does this guy ever just take it easy?


What was the welder woman doing at the show?


Shamu and a trainer on top of Shamu's nose.


Still on the phone.


Alex, Jorge and Carsen coming down the Riptide Rapids.


Next show was the Dolphin Show. This is where the boys get really wet. What you can't see is that Jorge ran up the stairs a long time ago when he realized that he was getting wet, again.


Carsen running up the stairs. Too late. He is already soaked.


Alex is running as well. And too late for him.


Stopped by to have some lunch. Here is our own animal attraction. Rod the Walrus.



At the Wild Arctic, Alex and Carsen got inside a snow cave. Ok, it is just plastic.


Beluga Whale. Hey, where's the caviar?


This King Penquin was just standing there, looking after all the little ones.


Is that glitter real on that Piranha's back?


One-legged Flamingo, or is he just hiding the other one? I learned that the reason why Flamingoes are pink is because they eat shrimp.


At the end of the day, the boys still wanted to see the starfish.


Ummm...the starfish was not supposed to be out of the water, Carsen.

I want to go there some day. I'm obsessed with whales. I want to be that trainer on Shamu's nose. Except I think Blue Whales and particularly cooler than any other whale. The Beluga Whale looks cool though. I'll have to research them.

Ummmm... pretty sure my nerdiness just shined through there. I basically am having a love affair with the ocean. =) Looks like a blast!
