Sea World 2011!!

We went to Sea World on July 25th. We were there all day and were totally exhausted. We had so much fun and have lots of awesome memories! We also found super deals online and so it didn't cost and arm and foot to go and Garrison got in for free! It was a great last vacation for us before our next baby comes.

This is the dolphin show. It has also changed since the last time we went. Its kinda hollywoodish. But it was fun.



Garrison loved watching all the animals jump out of the water.



You can buy some fish and feed the sea lions, but you have to be careful because there are a ton of birds waiting around to snatch it out of your hand if the sea lions dont get there fast enough. We experienced this first hand. My mom was trying to get Garrison to give a fish to the sea lion and a bird flew right by and ate it out of her hand. It was really crazy.



Misty loves turtles so we stopped by the turtle reef. It was really cool to see these huge turtles up close.


We went to the Shamu show. Which I loved last time we went, but since the last time we went one of the trainers was killed and so they are no longer able to swim with the killer whales, which actually made the show not as cool.
Garrison is trying to do the Shamu clap. He was trying so hard.

It was still a fun show. These animals do amazing things!



We went to the tide pool where you can touch the star fishes. Garrison had lots of fun putting his hands and feet in the water. It was also really hot so it felt nice to be able to get wet a little bit.



This is at the Sea Otter Show. They have some pre show entertainment. The guy reminded me a lot of Jimmy. He was hilarious.

He is doing the grease dance and lip singing both the man and womans part.
This guy had the sea lion following him, they are really talented creatures.

The whole day I was excited for Garrison to stop by the Sesame Street Place. We finally made it at the end of the day and they were singing and dancing! We then decided to take a picture with Elmo.
Garrison did a really good job saying hi and giving everyone hi fives, but when we went to take the picture he just started crying. It was still super cute. I am glad we did it.
Before we left California we went to see were Grandma MacDougall was buried. She was buried right next to Grandpa and Bruce her son. We got a few cute pictures of Garrison sitting there and then we took some family pictures.
