Instead, we decided to wait a few days and go while Aaron and Aimee were in school. So we went last Thursday for a few hours (ah, the joys of having Season Passes!).
We went to big aquarium first and got there just in time to see the janitorial staff(?) clean the reef tanks. Min made the comment that that didn't look like "work."
Next we went back passed the dolphin pool and it was feeding time, so we decided to let the kids have a go at it. Alex wasn't shy with the fish.
But when the dolphin showed up, he got freaked a little.
Alex couldn't decide who he wanted to go with him on the Little Shamu Rollercoaster. So I went first...
... the went on it again with Mom.
Then we went over to Shamu Stadium and Shamu was there, so we had to have a picture with the big guy!
Alex really enjoys the Shamu shows... even though, this time we sat right above the Splash Zone... and he still got a face full of water from one of the splashes.
On the way over to the seals and otters, we passed the Crocodile Cove and stopped to see the crocks, koi, and turtles.
I just saw this big bug and decided to take a pic. Alex thought it was an alien.
I've got a video of the sea lions that I'll post later. It's hilarious.
Anyways, after that we headed over to Viva! (our favorite show).
This show showcases dolphins and white whales (belugas). They had to stop the show part way through because one of the white whales was... um... "looking for love." Eventually she made it to the back and they could start up again.
So we spent about 4 hours there... and the kids slept the whole way home.
Happy Birthday Alex!
