Sea World For The Day

We spent a whole week here in San Diego and really did not venture out to do a lot.  Most of our time was spent at my grandparents' house hanging out.  They love to have the kids around, so I hate to leave with them to go do things.  I did however want to take a day and go to Sea World.  We had these half off tickets that a friend of my brother's hooked us up with and it seemed like a waste to not go and use them.  Plus, we rarely get to go do things like this as a family.  It was fun to have Eric there to see the kids enjoy the animals and the shows.  Ryder was crazy borderline spastic over everything he saw.  He screamed and pointed at everything... boy was in heaven.  Savannah has been to Sea World a few times before, so she knew what she wanted to see... straight to the sting rays and Shamu.  Everything else was cool to her, but not nearly as cool as those two things.



Ryder was excited to get to touch a star fish.  He probably would have jumped right in that ice cold water if I would have let him.

The sky ride over the bay is always one of my favorites... totally worth the 40 minute wait with an antsy toddler.

We were lucky and caught a close up training session with the orcas.  Savannah was speechless... totally in awe of them.  Ryder was squealing the entire time.  Again, I'm pretty sure he would have jumped in with them if I would have let him.


Waiting for the Shamu show to start.  I forgot how cold it gets here in the winter.  That ocean air is chilly!


Yeah, not so much.  Ryder was hesitant and not so impressed with Elmo and Cookie Monster.  Sister loved them.
