Just walking in this place....puts a big smile on my face!

Picked up our Sea World season passes today and did our first full day. I love this place; because the shows are all animals/mammals, the shows always change. You never know what they will do.

We were able to see the new (13 day old) baby Killer Whale....so neat to watch the relationship between the baby and "mama".

We went with our good friends Wally and Linda Medley, who also have season passes.

The dolphin show....always a favorite!

And a great show from the acrobats.....

Amazes me how they can train these huge animals to do the tricks they do.

Taking a bow.....

This is a "rescued" animal show. Amazing how they train mice, cats, birds and even a Pot Bellied pig.

Very weird frog...Emma will love this guy.

Sea Lions waiting for the tourists to throw food.....

This is one of the roller coasters...the Manta.

And yes Betty....Mom went on it and plans to do it again. It is such a cool ride!

There is something about these Stingrays that infatuate me.

One butt ugly octopus!

These were new to me....Peppermint Shrimp.

Living life in a "fishbowl".

The end of a long and enjoyable day. This place is a constant learning experience. I can't wait to take Emma here!!!
