Sea World

While we were in San Antonio we went to Sea World.  I am not sure who was more excited...the adults or the kids.  We started the day watching the dolphins...

 Then we went to see the stingrays, other fish and...

 SHARKS!

 Brynlee loved the fish and called them all "Nemo."

 Quinn and Kate's ride for most of the morning...

 Papa Lon bought fish to feed the sea lions...

 Then we went to the Cannery Row Caper (Sea Lion show)...it was GREAT! 

 Penguin and Puffin exhibit...

After lunch we went to the Sesame Street Bay of Play...there were rides, roller coasters, carousels, Sesame characters, and play areas.  The kids had a blast.
I think this was Kate's first "ride" Elmo's Dolphin Dive...

 All smiles...

 Then we rode a bigger ride...Abby Cadabby's Rockin' Wave

 Sing-a-long with Elmo...

 Carousel ride...Bryn loved this one...

We went to the hotel for naps and dinner and then came back to the park for Elmo's Block Party.  All the characters come out and sing and dance with the crowd.  It was really fun...even though it took Kate, Quinn, and Bryn a while to warm up to all the characters...

 Kate spent the first half up on this bridge because "they can't see me" when I am up here...

 Quinn hung out on the side...

 Parker and Brynlee dancing...

 Abby Cadabby...

 Cookie Monster came by to see Brynlee...

 Brynlee always had her hand on someone...

 Kate finally came down and danced with CC and Abby...

 We ended the day with Shamu Rocks...

 The kids loved every minute of it...

 The Wave...

 I was torn between watching the show and the kids.  Their expressions were priceless...

 Waving to the crowd...

 Hot and sweaty family pic just before leaving Sea World...

 CC and Papa Lon bought the grand kids Shamu souvenirs...

 They were a big hit!!!

 Headed back to the hotel...

What a great day at Sea World!!!
