This past weekend we took a little ride south of town to San Antonio to visit Sea World. It has always been one of my favorite theme parks because I absolutely love dolphins and whales – in fact, I used to want to be a trainer and to this day I still think it’s one of the best careers ever. Anyway, I digress. The reason we planned this trip was for the kiddos; Monster kept talking about sharks and whales – so we decided to take a trip!
We were very lucky with the weather because it was cloudy all day; it was still hot, but at least the sun wasn’t frying us up. We also had perfect timing on all of the shows, so there wasn’t any waiting around! Here’s some photos of the day, and you can see more in the flickr set.

Shamu – Believe
Needless to say, I took a lot of photos of the Viva! costuming. It’s one of my favorite shows due to the acrobatics, color and dolphins!
That was our big Labor Day Weekend event, and it was so much fun. Can’t wait to go back!


Beautiful photos — I especially like the first one. Sounds like a great day. We’ve been here with all our nieces and nephews. One of our nieces also has “Shamu trainer” as one of her top future career paths!
Neato! Looks like fun.
