A Visit to Sea World

This trip to Sea World was short and sweet. The park didn't open until 10 am, so we didn't have a whole lot of time before we had to head back for naps but the kids enjoyed the time we were there. We saw the penguin exhibit, watched the sea lion show and viewed some of the animals. It was of course sweltering in San Antonio in August, so the splash area was also a big hit. We headed home for naptime with the intention of coming back afterwards, but just ended up hanging at the resort. We will have to come back once naps are over or on a day the Sea World hours are extended.

Everyone ready to roll!

Our first stop was the penguin exhibit and the kids loved the moving sidewalk (although it made all my pictures come out blurry) and seeing the penguins swimming around. Of course, we all had to get a stuffed penguin at the end.

Hey there--sea lions!

Brian took the kids on this climbing adventure with huge nets. The girls struggled a little keeping up, but they made it.

We love the water! One of the moms in the splash area commented to me on how "fearless" the twins are. I couldn't help but think she is kind of right.
