The Shows

Blue Horizons

Blue Horizons was a beautiful show.

Dolphins, parrots, acrobats... It brought tears to my eyes!

Pets Ahoy

Dogs, cats, rats, ducks, doves, a cockatoo, a pig... all well-trained rescued animals.

(Well, the cockatoo needs a little more work to get to "well-trained," but she'll get there.)

Ellie had tears in her eyes.  😉

One Ocean

 

Orcas are awesome.

Clyde & Seamore's Sea Lion High

Talented people.  Talented creatures.  They made us laugh.  😄

The Creatures

Manatees!

These are the 3 "babies"... The mamas were HUGE!

We enjoyed learning about the manatee rehabilitation program.

 💙 Dolphins 💙

Beautiful blue seahorse... with cool creatures in the tank behind him. 

 There's a sea horse in this photo... Can you see him?

(Jadan interrupts: They're actually called leafy sea dragons, and there's two of them. 😜)

(Mom interrupts Jadan's interruption: It's there are two, not there's two. 😉)

 At the end of the Antarctica ride, we ended up hanging out with these cool dudes.

 Jadan was loving seeing sharks in the underwater tunnel!

A saw-nose shark even snuck up on Tim and freaked him out.

Jadan loved that, too! 😜

Crush recognized Jadan and said hi.

 So much fun to "pet" the rays!

 ...or to have them smiling down at you...

The Coasters

Tim alone went on all of the roller coasters,

including Mako, Orlando's tallest, fastest, and longest coaster.

He loved them.

Here's a video of him on the Manta... Can you spot him?

(He's on the left side, second car.)

We walked all over that park and were exhausted by the end of the day.

Exhausted but happy!  What a wonder-filled day! 💙
