Day four was SeaWorld and after spending 2 days at Disneyland and one at Universal Studio’s we were pretty tired. Thankfully SeaWorld was a slower pace and not crowded in February.
Feeding the Manta ray’s was a highlight. Can’t believe my wimpy girls did it.
There were star fish..
and no Shamoo??? The show was cancelled because a trainer in Florida was killed. I guess its insensitive for me to be disappointed but when you never have been to Sea World before and the biggest attraction gets cancelled it is bad timing.
At lunch time we sat by the rapids ride and enjoyed watching people get soaked. It became apparent that every 10-15 boats that went through had the bad luck of going through a waterfall full blast. In most cases a sensor was hit and the water fall would turn off just before they went through but we noticed that every so often it wouldn’t turn off. Those people would get soaked! As we began to leave Alan offered to take the kids on the ride. So I quickly ran around to watch. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw Alan’s face. He knew right where the waterfall should have turned off and it didn’t. They went through it full blast. It was pretty miserable because the twins were soaked all the way to the underwear. Like they had swam in a pool in their clothes! It was probably the highlight of SeaWorld though.
After we headed down to Laguna Beach for dinner at Johnny Rockets. Laguna Beach is a special place and we used to visit in a lot.
It was decided we needed a break before another big park. So the next day we headed down to Laguna beach. It might have been my favorite day of all :)

Bummer about Shamu! I remember when I was pregnant with Lauren, I went to Sea World...I cried when Shamu jumped out of the water, it was so beautiful! (Or maybe it was the pregnancy hormones!?!) Glad you made it to Sea World this visit. It's expensive but worth at least one trip!
Ohhhhhhhhh Gracie would be so jealous! She loves all things sea. I love the shot of them feeding the rays. The reflection on the water is so cool!
♥ HOW fun!!! :)
Fun!! We love Sea World. We got a season pass this year, the girls can't get enough of the animals.
I would have been upset about Shamu too.
It was a fun day despite missing shamoo. Can't believe how soaked they all got. I am glad I stayed clear of that ride!LOL
