Sea World

We took a nice relaxing trip to Sea World the other day. Kaiden guided us around the park like a pro, using his newly found map reading skills. We've got year passes to Sea World so we've been there many many times. We were happy to have him show us around, going into every single gift shop, stopping to see every white ibis looking for food, and walking on every single ledge on the edge of the sidewalk. It was a slow moving day indeed but its our favorite way to visit!

One of our favorite parts of the park is the dolphin nursery. We sat there forever watching the mama's and babies. They are so curious about us, and us about them. They really seem to be communicating with us - flirting almost!


This is the first time we've been to an amusment park and Kaiden has truly been into going on the rides. He was loving the thrill of them and by the looks of this picture so was I!

This a picture of Kaiden right before going on his first roller coaster type ride. He's finally tall enough!!! He was so proud but got really nervous right before the ride, Journey Through Atlantis, started. He was fine going through the BIG splash but we were unaware of the 2 other drops at the end of the ride wich caught him off guard making him not want to go on again. But with a little coaxing he caved in and went again. He LOVED it the second time around and we went again and again!


Now Kaiden is itching in his seat to be tall enough to go on Kraken, just like his Daddy of course!
