Sea World Trip!

The "sword" souviners. We tried to have them get necklaces, but that was out of the question!















The Rides and meeting new friends.




























Dalia was so excited to go on the rides she even went on the Atlantis with her dad, but only once after that she didn't want to try it again.

We got to see Chris on of the Budweiser horses too!

The Penguins during the big feeding time.

We also went to the Sesame Street 4D Imagination movie. We got to wear the cool glasses, and Dalia kept trying to touch everything. It sprayed, rained, and blew wind on us for real inside the theatre, which the girls loved.

This was the Sea Lions Live Show, which was hilarious and the girls LOVED it!!! They even danced for us, doing some hip-hop.

Before the Sea Lion show started "Biff" the stage crew guy picked Dalia to come help. He tried to get her to let him heft her over the side into the pool. She of course was shaking her head no and then looked back at us to see if it was something she could do -- it was really cute. And sorry I just accidently deleted that picture and I'm not going to take the time and trouble to reload it!

Buluga Whale











Polar Bear

Manitee

This was part of the "Pets Rule" show, where the dogs, cats, and pigs did tricks and things. Of course afterward Mataya was in heaven getting to meet one of the pigs!!

OF COURSE, the Shamu Show, the girls loved watching all of the tricks and jumps it was great watching their faces.

I don't know if you can see Mataya's face, but she was in awe!

Getting to touch and pick up the sea stars as long as we kept them under water.

Sea Turtle

We had Mataya on the leash sometimes, but she is determined to go somewhere.

Sea Lion during feeding time.

The girls watching the Sea Lions during the feeding time.

Shark Reef -- they were a little scared.

Dad and the girls walking into the Shark Reef, it was actually really dark and they were a little nervous and were infatic that they were not going to touch any sharks!

Sting Ray's head peaking out of the water.

Dalia trying to touch and feed the Sting Rays, she was feeding a little one and got upset when one of the bigger ones stole the food.

Mataya was not to keen on the idea of touching the Sting Rays, she really didn't like the slimey feel since she has issues with her hands feeling dirty.

Watching the dolphins -- when their new show opens it will be awesome.

This was one of the first things we saw, the killer whales at the underwater observation area! and the girls just stared!

Here are the girls arriving at Sea World, they weren't excited or anything!!
