OT: My trip to Seaworld

cheeks69 · 10-15-2007, 12:12 PM

Thought I'd share some photos from my recent trip

The first photo is of our family {my wife is 6 months pregnant and held up suprisingly well during the trip, we walked for miles} with a beautiful backdrop.

Me and my sister feeding and caressing the dolphins:

Of course a photo with Shamu:

A beautiful "tubelike" shark tank:

I had never been to Florida and really felt this trip was going to be much more enjoyable for my daughter, boy was I wrong !

Cool pics. Sea Worls CA is actually where I donate Sharks & Eels that get to large for my Really Large tanks. They are very appriciative for the donations. Last donation was a 5' Atlantic Nurse & a 4' Lemon Shark

Well that's great to hear, I also didn't know there was a Seaworld in Cali !

Here's some more photos from the whale show and I'm glad I wasn't in the splash zone as that water was cold !

Marine mammals never cease to amaze me! I love Sea World, but don't like to see them in captivity. It's a love/hate thing.

Great shots Robert, thanks for sharing!

I enjoyed even more {lol} !
It was a real marathon since we visited 6 parks but I had a great time especially when we ate dinner at the Coral Reef restaurant in Epcot. There's nothing like eating a great meal and staring at a 5 million gallon tank at the same time and having a Goliath Grouper staring you down looking quite hungry

I know what you mean, I also had mixed feelings about it.

Great Picture cheeks,,, Thanks for sharing

Yes, Sea World is pretty darn cool. I haven't been there in awhile and one year I must have been there at least 4 times. I still don't think I saw everything. Great pictures!

Last time I was there was in 1989. Had a really good time, looks like you did also. When we were there the dolphin petting pool was empty but, I did get to feed the rays.

kathywithbirds · 10-15-2007, 04:35 PM

My daughter and I couldn't be torn away from the ray petting tank!

Looks like you guys had a great time!
