The Tiff Blog: Class Fieldtrip to Sea World

It was a day at Sea World today! Shannon and the girls came last night to join us in the fun. Even though they had tickets they got to sneak in the Education Center with us. No one said anything about it, so we continued on into the park. They got in Free.

My little buddies that were in our group was Gage, and Che. I didn't really have a chance to enjoy myself because I was trying to keep our group together the whole time. It's hectic when you have, let's see, 5 children to look after( that included Sionna and Rylee)? Good thing Shannon was there to help. Everytime we went to an exhibit someone(like Che or Gage) wanted to run to the next! Crazy. But overall the kids were really good. Even though I would turn my back and Che would be running away from us, I still thought they had good manners and enjoyed being with them. But I think I've had enough of Sea World to last me for another year.

Sionna carpooled with me and Raquel. She really wanted to listen to High School Musical 2. So that's what they did.

We were looking inside a tank of some very interesting Dolphins..I forget what they're called. After this we were off to see the Dolphin show. It was more like a "talking show, about Dophins." Not real entertaining for me and Shan. But the kids enjoyed it.

You can see Rylee and Che, above Gage, Raquel and Sionna. Rylee was so cute today. Her little facial expressions are the best.

I have too many video's of the Dolphin show with

the "talking trainers". The whole show was like an infomerical. Too much talking, not enough show. Shan and I laughed talking about this..The Shamu show is no better, but that's another part of this blog, later on.

Here's the last "Talking Infomercial Dolphin Show"

And then we went off to see the Penguins.

Rylee and Raquel-looking at penguin dolls, in the store.

I love this picture of Raquel.. And no, Raquel is not the penguin. Ha!

Sharks were the next thing on our list..The boys really wanted to see those..

Here we are inside the Shark exhibition. Gage and Sionna got to touch a block of shark skin..

Ooooo, Scary!

Sea Lion Time!

Rylee was being soooo cute.. She was jumping and making funny faces.

I thought this was an interesting, fluffy bird.

Up close and personal with the Dolphins. This was the last exhibit I had with Gage and Che. I dropped them off with their Teacher, Mrs. Zink, and headed towards the "Shamu" show, with Raquel. By this time Shan thought we were just gonna leave the park, so she and the girls went to the show as well. Of course I couldn't find my sister. There were thousands of people waiting to see the show. Raquel and I sat where there was an empty spot. Shan and I met up after the show. Come to find out that we were on opposite sides of the stadium. We didn't realize that we actually took pics of eachother while Shamu was up in the air..It's too funny. We cracked up when we spotted ourselves in the pictures.I know it's kind of hard to see them, but Sionna has a white, bucket hat on, and Rylee is on Shan's lap.
