SHAMU, SHAMU!!!

Saturday was our day at Sea World. After Disneyland, I wondered if it would be a disappointment to the girls. But I think they had fun. We got there, and grabbed a $5 Little Ceasar's pizza before heading into the park. (Much cheaper than any of the food available at Sea World.)



The first thing we saw was "Shamu." The girls were mesmerized, and would have stayed there all day if we had let them.

Then we went to catch "Shamu's" Believe show. It's really not Shamu anymore, though. I guess killer whales don't live that long. (Can you tell Andie was just a tad excited?!?)

This is Corky, but to the girls he was still Shamu.

Daddy and his girls watching the Believe show.

Corky again. They did some pretty cool things.

After that, we headed to the Grand Opening of a new kiddie land there at Sea World. It's all Sesame Street themed, and Andie was in heaven. She kept pointing out pictures of Elmo, Cookie, and Abby. We met up with the McCarty's again, and the girls all had fun playing together.

Josian & Aspen and Rob & Kate in the mirrors. The girls thought they were pretty funny.

Me and Andie riding the flying Elmo pig.


Watching Elmo on the big boat with Bert and Ernie, Abby and Cookie Monster. Andie was in heaven!

She was scared of Belle, but give her a big, red, hairy monster, and she walks right up to him and gives him a hug. Go figure!

The highlight of the vacation for Andie.

She was a little leary of Big Bird.

Getting ready to watch the 4-D Elmo movie. You had to wear 3-D glasses, and the seats rumbled, sprayed water at you, it rained from the ceiling, and bubbles floated down as well. Andie was in awe.

Heading to the car after another exhausting day.
Andie didn't even make it to the car!

Those pictures of you and Rob with the kids... watching the show, those are great 'in the moment' pictures. I love pictures like that when they are natural, rather than a 'smile and say cheese!'

Looks like you're having a WONDERFUL time.
