Water Fun and Sesame Street

My mom took Davis to SeaWorld a couple weeks ago and they had so much fun cooling off in the Bay of Play and meeting all the characters from Sesame Street! 

Sunny SeaWorld

Back in May, on an rare weekend in town, we decided to use our SeaWorld pass. Here's what's great about having the pass...you can go and see one or two shows and not feel like it's a waste of money missing the other six. You can get there at 10am and leave around 1pm if needed. You don't feel like you have to stay ALL day and see EVERY attraction and EVERY show. Because we can come back! 

We started out at Clyde and Seamore, which is our favorite show! The picture makes it look like SeaWorld was empty that day, deceiving picture. It was packed! We didn't sit in the splash zone, but it would have been nice to get a little splash, it was hot! 

Then we went to the Bay of Play, which is the Sesame Street part of SeaWorld with rides and slides and tons of fun for the little ones. We rode Big Bird's ferris wheel, Davis' first real ride! I have a fear of heights, I was freaking out (which is why my photo skills are lacking, I was distracted with thoughts of falling out of the bird egg). Davis had a blast, not noticing my fear at all!

Our last stop before leaving the park was to see Shamu. The last time we saw Shamu, he splashed us. Splashed us big-time. Davis has not forgotten his first encounter with Shamu and made sure, by choosing a seat in the very last row, it would not happen again!

Davis Meets Shamu

Other than the Disney parks, it doesn't get much better than SeaWorld! My mom decided she wanted to take Davis to SeaWorld during the holidays and it was her treat! How could Forrest and I miss out, so we all went! Now we have a year pass! I'm already ready to go back.

We couldn't have picked a better day. Most of December had been rainy and cold. Out of the blue, one random day a couple days before Christmas, it was sunny and reached 70 degrees.

Christmas tree and mariachi band welcomes you to SeaWorld!

Candy Cane Lane -- too bad we couldn't eat them!

During the Sesame Street show, Abby Cadabby made it snow!

Watching sea lions eat lunch!

Watching his FAVORITE ride, The Atlantis, make a huge splash!

Clyde and Seamore save Christmas!

Shamu was amazing...

Until we got all wet...

Lucky for us, our sweater was dry and we were happy again!

I would like to come back to SeaWorld please, one more time!

At the end of the day...

Thanks Mom!!!
