San Diego ~ Seaworld

January 30

Everyone's convinced, particularly Ian, that nothing can equal Legoland....everyone is pleasantly surprised with Seaworld (seaworld.com)!  Even Ian thinks it's "just as much fun, in a different way".

Shamu and friends still have the biggest wow factor!

But there's so much more to do.  A family favorite, believe it or not, is the " petting zoo"!  Ian really gets into this and is not only petting starfish, but feeding the rays fish out of his hand. We all tried it and was rather cool, if not a little bit creepy.

There are some very interesting bird habitats scattered throughout the park.

A few rides, aquariums and a couple of other shows round out the park, but Seaworld is definitely all about the whales.

Kelly and Chip have dinner with old Navy friends in Coronado and the three of us have a fabulous kid's night and cook pizzas on the grill, spend much time in the game room topped off with ice cream from the snack shop. 

San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park is tomorrow's outing.
