Well, the weather held today and we had another good day at Sea World. We didn't stay as long as yesterday, but we were there for about 6 hours...long enough to get more in and do things we didn't get to do yesterday.
This morning we started off with breakfast with Shamu...oh my that was totally amazing. We sat right next to a plexiglass window and RIGHT on the other side of that was the tank with the Killer Whales! As we were getting settled, Joel and Connor were waving to the whales and they came up and started talking with the boys...it was the neatest thing! They also got annoyed with little Connor because he kept tapping his fork against his plate...something he does that annoys US as well....well...they flipped their tale at him and tried to splash us! LOL I told Connor, "See even Shamu doesn't want you banging your fork!" It was a lovely buffet and the trainers came out and gave us LOTS of photo opportunities with the whales as well. I will post a couple of my favorite pics at the bottom of this blog.
After breakfast, we were off on some rides and then did the Clyde and Seamore show. It was adorable as usual and had the kids laughing.
After Sea World, Connor went down for a nap, and Joel and I hit the hotel pool that is heated to 80 degrees. It was really pleasant and we had a great time splashing around. Joel met a couple of friends from Mexico City and had a blast playing with them and asking them why they spoke Spanish...he was amazed that they spoke both Spanish and English...I told him he could do that too if he really wanted to!
After nap time, Connor and David left for back home. My parents graciously agreed to watch Connor for me while David was at his business meeting that he could not reschedule. Joel and I rented a movie, went to the lobby shop and got some sweets to eat, and headed to the game room to play a couple of video games. It was a really fun mother/son night and I am really looking forward to hanging out with Joel again tomorrow. I don't often get the chance to do that for long periods of time and I am looking forward to getting to know my 5 year old better. Night all!
