Sea World

This may have been my favorite day. Not my favorite park, mind you, but my favorite day. My parents took us on this trip for their 40th wedding anniversary. Very generous, eh? Well, Allegra and I wanted to mark their anniversary in a special way on this trip.

Sooo, we took the to lunch with Shamu. Really, it was called Dine with Shamu. We ate beside the training pools and then had a private (with appoximately 75 other guests) "show." The trainers explained how the Shamu show works and how the Shamus (there were 7) are trained. It was very cool, and Mom said it might have been our best anniversary gift ever.

















































There were, of course other shows. We espcially enjoyed the Clyde and Seamore Show. Clyde and Seamore are seals. They share the stage with an otter, a walrus and a few humans, too.

I think that these were all the highlights of Sea World
