Since school is over, we took the kids to Seaworld for a little fun

Bay of Play

This canvas "floor" was fun for Rachel to jump on. It is like a huge bed designed to be jumped.

Ending

"Ignight" is a fairly new show at Seaworld. It was really cool with blasts of fire and little fireworks timed to stunts done by the dolphins and pilot whales.

Leslie's friend Cindy (Mrs.Evans24-7 from the Sonlight Forums) came to visit San Diego with her son, and Leslie & the kids were blessed to spend the day at Sea World with them! Here they are with Pete the Penguin (he's the big guy in the middle)

There was hardly anyone at the park, and we were able to get very close to all of the exhibits. The kids were thrilled to get to touch the dolphins!

Here, all of the kids were running along with a mama orca & her baby...this isn't something that could happen on a summer weekend!

This is our kids' favorite exhibit: the tidepools

HEY DUDE!

Leslie enjoys some yummy eggplant

Just when Leslie thought that she'd found the one place safe from snakes... What do snakes have to do with the ocean anyway?!!!

Riding a manatee

Yes, the kids did have the camera. What makes you think that?

Elijah eating insulation as a snack. Of course I'm kidding--it's cotton candy!

Mmmmm...popcorn!

We had a wonderful visit with Cindy & Caleb, and had a great time playing tour guides! (as we do for ALL visitors!)
