Sea World Orlando 9-29-08

We were off to Sea World very early on Monday morning. We were excited because we (the Salyers' family) have never been there before. Of course we had to go see Shamu...the size of these animals are amazing. There were several that performed during the show. The best part is when they swim by the audience and drown people with their tales.

Journey to Atlantis was a boat ride that went down a steep hill and at the bottom just when you think you are finished....people were standing there ready to put quarters in and drown you as you went by. I think Zachary had the most fun standing there and drowning people as they went by. The look on their face was priceless when they would wave at their families and then all of a sudden they would get drenched with this water cannon. I think Joe ( Zach's dad) must have given him $15.00 worth of quarters. An entire crowd of people gathered around because Zach was so good at aimimg at people. It was really quite humorous!! When Landon and A.J. went by A.J.'s mom said not to aim at them....guess what happened when they got off the ride??? You would think they would be happy but they were mad because they didn't get drenched by Zach...go figure.



If you ever go to Sea World you have to ride Kraken. It is an amazing coaster that takes many twists and turn and it is so smooth. The best part is that your legs dangle free in the air and you take a big plunge down toward the water. We actually walked right onto the ride with no wait.

We had a great day. We laughed a lot and we went to a lot of different shows that were really great. I was surprised at how much there was to do. We hope to go to the new water park, Aquatica, later this week. Good night for now...we are all very tired and off to bed!! I hope you all are having a great week.
