Sea World

These next few posts are going to be a little out of order.  There are some other posts that we have to upload but we wanted to send back updates from our current vacation.  On Wednesday, we flew down to San Antonio, TX and on Thursday we headed to Sea World. 


First stop was the flamingo exhibit while we waited for the Shamu show

Waiting to take our seats 

The show begins 

 

This was Kim's favorite move.  She called it the breakdancing whale because he got out of the water and spun (tough to display in photos) 

 

 

 

Seconds before they splashed the audience.  Luckily we weren't in the splash zone. 

 

 

 

The grand finale.

Next up was the Journey to Atlantis ride.  it's a log plume ride that all the Roemers went on together.   

You can see they all started off brave with Sophie and Ceci joinging their dad with arms in the air 

Of course, half a second later, all but Wes were holding on for dear life. 

Splashdown!

Next up was the sea lion show 

It was a detective mystery show trying to find the fish thief 

 

I wasn't quick enough to catch "Cookie", the female lead, jump into the water but the sea lion was right behind 

We were once again glad to not be in the splash zone.

To be continued... 

Sea World Continued

(Spoiler Alert)
The culprit was "Uncle Leo"

This is him trying to work off the extra fish he ate by doing situps 

 

Next up was the penguin exhibit 

Followed by some rides in the Sesame Street play area for the little kids 

And Sophie and Ceci found a ride their speed

Next up was feeding the dolphins.  This friendly guy came up to visit us on the viewing side of the pool 

Gia waiting for her sisters to feed the dolphins 

Soph first 

Then Ceci's turn 

Lastly it was the sharks before a tired ride home.  A great first day in San Antonio 

Ready for Daycare

This is Elle bundled up for her morning trip to daycare.  Bubba always has to ride along inside the coat to stay warm.

Hurricane Elle

This is what happens when Elle wakes up from a nap and we don't hear her.  She and her Momma had cleaned the room before nap time.

Yes, that pile of clothes in the corner is the entire contents of her dresser.

Ice Storm 2012

Once the snow was done, in came the freezing rain to seal it all in.  Colby was having a little fun with te new camera...

Luckily we didn't loose any trees but we did lose power for about a day and a half.

More Snow and Coco

Of course it didn't stop snowing so more backyard fun was necessary



Checking to make sure the swing set still worked in the snow

Elle showing off the badger had Daddy brought back from Wisconsin

Of course more snow play means more coco!

Have to get those last marshmallows

Uh Oh!  One is trying to escape!

Got it!

How about a tropical theme for your coco?
