Cali Trip Part 2

After going to the beach and hanging pool side and generally relaxing, we headed for Sea World. Michael hadn't been since he was like eight. The kids had a great time. It was pretty exhausting. Skipping naps for both kids was brave of us, and they were both very tired, but overall they did great and we had a great time. In hindsight, I wish we would have ridden more of the adult rides. They just opened up a new roller coaster this summer and I hear it's pretty awesome, but we didn't try to go on it. Oh and the sun was really intense as you sat out in it watching the shows all day, especially after spending all the previous days out in the sun. But it was good times and I'm glad we went. 

Here are some characters we encountered. 



There is a whole "land" dedicated to Sesame Street. Raegan loved all these little rides dedicated to her age (they all mimicked Disney rides). Turns out they wouldn't let Weston ride without shoes (I forgot to bring them of course) so we had to buy him some shoes there in the park. They are orange Elmo shoes and they cost $20. He then rode like two rides. Oh well. 

We rode this one a bunch.

Yay for naps! (See the shoes?)



The aquariums were a nice way to get out of the sun. (Blurry picture, sorry). Raegan LOVED seeing all the fish. She shrieked about Nemo and Dori. Fun times. 


One of the gift shops had a fun little coloring craft we stopped to do. I said it on the last post, but these are the greatest cousins a girl could ask for. Raegan adores them and they gave her so much love and attention. 



Before coming she had watched an Elmo's world episode about penguins, so she was super excited about this one.
