OUR FIRST ADVENTURE OF WEEK 3 WAS SEA WORLD .
WE HAD BOOKED DISCOVERY COVE IN JANUARY AND
WITH THE ADMISSION PRICE, WE GOT FREE ADMISSION
TO BOTH SEA WORLD AND AQUATICA.
THE DAY WAS PERFECT!
THE TREES IN FLOWER WERE GORGEOUS. I HAD NOT SEEN A NUMBER OF THEM
THE PINK IS RED BUD, THE YELLOW IS A TABEBUIA - COMMONLY KNOWN
AS A TRUMPET TREE. I HAD NOT SEEN IT BEFORE BUT IT NEEDS A WARM
WINTER SO MAYBE THE CONDITIONS WERE JUST RIGHT FOR IT THIS YEAR.
STOPPING TO CHECK THE MAP AND PLAN OUR ROUTE
OUR FIRST STOP WAS THE ANTARCTICA EXHIBIT.
IT WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION ON OUR LAST VISIT.
A CHILLY LOOKING PLACE!
WIDE EYED WONDER!
LOTS OF PENGUINS TO OBSERVE AND A NICE PLACE TO
LINGER ON A HOT DAY!
SOME BRILLIANT COLOURING.
BACK TO FEED SOME SEALS AND SEA LIONS. LEARNING ABOUT THEM AS WELL.
DECLAN
IN THE SHARK TANK
SHAMU - NO SHOW TODAY WHICH IS TOO BAD.
WE DID WATCH THE WHALES IN THE TRAINING POOL FOR A WHILE.
ON TO A FEW RIDES.
DEFINITELY NOT A PRIORITY WITH OUR FAMILY.
WE SORT OF AVOID ALL THE RIDE SECTION AS ADULTS!
KIDS HAD FUN ON THE SHAMU KID ROLLER COASTER.
EVEN MICHAYLA TRIED IT THIS TIME.
ENTERTAINMENT IN THE PARK.
QUITE AMAZING!
HEADING IN TO MANGO JOE'S FOR LUNCH.
LOVE THOSE HANGING BASKETS.
ANY CHANCE I CAN HAVE THOSE IN WINNIPEG THIS SUMMER????
WE DID NOT STAY FOR THE DOLPHIN SHOW SO JUST STOPPED
BY TO SEE THE DOLPHIN NURSERY.
CHRIS & LORI HEADED TO DOLPHIN COVE FOR A FEW PHOTOS!
ENJOYED THE BRILLIANT COLOURS OF THE FLAMINGOES
AND THE DIFFERENT BIRDS THAT INHABIT THE SEA LION
AREA - THEY ARE MOSTLY THERE TO STEAL FISH WHEN
YOU TRY TO FEED THE SEALS AND SEA LIONS.
WE HAD A BEAUTIFUL DAY AT THE PARK.
DID NOT STAY TOO LATE AS TOMORROW WE
HEAD TO DISCOVERY COVE - OUR ULTIMATE DESTINATION.
SO BACK TO THE HOUSE FOR TACO SALAD SUPPER,
TIME IN THE POOL AND AN EARLY BEDTIME SO WE COULD
HEAD OUT BY 7:30 TOMORROW MORNING.
