San Diego Day 4

We spent our final full day before traveling home at Sea World.

After two full days of rides at Legoland, the boys were ready to ride more. We convinced them to see a few animals before heading to the Sesame Street Bay of Play. The guys fed small fish to some hungry bat rays. They were not so sure about the experience. It was a little frightening and gross to have bat rays sucking fish out of their fingers.


The boys LOVED the Bay of Play! Here they are bouncing away.

Riding Abby's Sea Star Spin

Riding Oscar's Rockin' Eels in the rain. Fortunately, it was just a brief shower before the sun came out again.

Waiting in line for the Sky Tower and deciding where to go next...Sesame Street Bay of Play was their vote.

A view of the Sesame Street Bay of Play from the Sky Tower...The water areas were not open, but the boys loved the huge jungle gym of climbing nets, bridges, and slides. They could have stayed there ALL day. In fact, Cole tried to, but Curt caught him.

Riding Elmo's Flying Fish

Cole on Elmo's Flying Fish...Once upon a time, Elmo meant the world to Cole.

We didn't spend the whole day at the Bay of Play. Here are some animal photos from our day at Sea World.

Cole and Kelly watched the sea otters while Curt and Caden rode Journey to Atlantis (a water rollercoaster). We could have watched them swim, snooze, and play with ice for quite some time.

The boys showed no interest in waiting in line to interact with the dolphins, but we watched them swim around for a while.

Here are a few photos from the entertaining Shamu show.


We chose to stay far away from the very large splash zone.

After enjoying an absolutely delicious fudge brownie funnel cake (YUM!), we went to the Pets Rule show that featured trained dogs, cats (!), pigs, and birds. In this photo, the black dog set up a romantic dinner for the white dog. Too funny!

A cat walking on a tightrope...I cannot begin to imagine training our Mia! Pets Rule was such a fun show.

Yet another FUN day in San Diego! The last day of our vacation was spent traveling home. We had such a wonderful vacation! Great idea, Curt!
