Sea World San Antonio

Sea World! This was the highlight of the week and the last day before we started the drive home.

We were there an hour before it opened and still had to wait in line. Since we probably will not come again for a long time, we tried to make the most of our day.

Our first show was the silly seals.

After the show, we talked to the trainers about their jobs. You could see Maddie's mind contemplating the possibility of working at Sea World some day!

Good thing we wore swimsuits...we all got soaked!

Then we fed the seals!


The second show was the orca whales. We had great seats, the music was powerful, and I was overwhelmed by the moment. Tears! Isn't that ridiculous!? I was sitting by Maddie and she was in such awe that I couldn't help but cry!

The last show was an ocean version of Cirque de Soleil with divers, synchronized swimmers, dophins, and more. We smiled the whole time.

As we met the divers and swimmers, I knew that the girls' dreams were big!

We did a lot of walking at Sea World so we made sure to stop in the shade and try on hats!

And we got to feed the dolphins!!

We had to go on some rides...after we checked heights. Gus was too short and it was a huge bummer for him.

Elise loved the Shamu roller coaster.

Maddie and Eric went on the "Steel Eel" and they both left scared!

What a day!
