Sea World

We just got home from Sea World. The kids had a great time...of course. The first thing we did was a meet and greet with Shamu. Then the kids took photos with Santa. After we took these photos we went to see the penguins, polar bears, walruses, and whales. Sophia loved the penguins. We took several pictures. I know Sophia's kindergarten teacher will be thrilled (we are definitely looking forward to penguin week!) After we saw these animals we watched two shows. The first was a seal and otter show and the second was a dolphin and bird show. Both were excellent. After the shows the kids wanted to feed the seals and the bat rays. Everything went smoothly until a bird stole a piece of fish right out of Sophia's hand. At the end of the day we were able to take pictures with Corky, the killer whale. The best part was that no one else was around, so the kids were able to watch the whale for quite a while. The kids are all resting right now and we will be off to dinner shortly. Tomorrow we spend time watching the Lions play football, enjoying the hotel Thanksgiving brunch, and visiting the beach. Until then....
