Friday we went to Sea World. I LOVE it there! I get emotional every time I see the whales. They are SO amazing! I wish I could swim with one. HAHA
It was an ‘overcasty’ day and a bit rainy, but we were pretty excited to go to Sea World. We did see lots of shows, the Sea Otters (w/Clyde), the Dolphins, Pets Rule, Shark Encounter, fed Dolphins, went on the famous Journey to Atlantis ride (it was my first time – it’s a dang fun ride), and of course the grand finale – Shamu. Poor Kelsie got so tired in the afternoon, and she fell asleep before we saw Shamu. Linds really tried her best to wake her up, but she was zonked. Poor thing missed the whale show. But the show was great. The girls each came away with a couple of stuffed animals – Shamu whales and dolphins! We traveled back to Anaheim after closing, and arrived about 9:30 that night. I think we were all glad we went, but were pretty tired!

Kailee said "I touched a rubber dolphin and fed him some slimy fish".

Even Papa Don got in on the action! :)

Kelsie wouldn't pet the dolphin. When I got home and told Larry about it he said "Good thing! That dolphin could have eaten her arm off." I don't think I've ever laughed so hard!
But she did love watching these. I forget what they are called. Some kind of dolphin. She kept calling them whales though...
Kelsie would have LOVED the Shamu show. I really did try to wake her up. :( Oh well, I guess I loved it enough for the both of us!


Saturday:
We packed up the next morning, checked out, took some pics by the pool and left Dolphin’s Cove around noon. We decided to stop at the Disney outlet store in Vegas for some last minute souvenirs! Then we went on to St. George where we stayed at Mike and Toots place again, then on to Spanish Fork the next day, where we parted ways. Brittany’s car was at the Western Ag branch, and we traded out the car seats and luggage, and went to our homes. We were surprised that the trip on the way home really didn’t feel that long. Especially from St. George to home. What a fantastic week!!!

I think by this time the girls were both SICK and TIRED of getting their pictures taken...
We really did have an AMAZING/AWESOME/INCREDIBLY FUN vacation. I am so grateful for the opportunity we had to go and for my mom and dad for making it happen!!
