Seaworld

We saw sharks, sea lions, barricudas, and Ricky and Vanessa touched a stingray. Lots of pirates and pumpkins because it was the Boo Spooktacular for trick or treating children.

Here we are at Seaworld. The last time Ricky and I were here, was about 21 years ago, and I was pregnant with Addison, Jordan was 1 l/2, Lindsay was 5, and Rebecca was 6. The weather was so warm, and there weren't that many people.
We watched the dolphin show, and there were acrobats dressed as birds, who would fly through the air and dive into the water with the dolphins. It was very spectacular. We sat in the soak zone and were afraid about getting Vanessa's camera wet, so this is the only shot we took. It turns out that we never got splashed anyway.

This is the Shamu show. "Shampoo" as Bridger calls him. I really did get goose bumps being that close and seeing the majesty of these beautiful mammals. Again we sat in the Soak Zone and didn't get as much as a drop of water on us! This picture is taken from a distance with the zoom lense, as one of the killer whales was preparing for the show.
