Sea World

This weekend we went to Sea World to celebrate Thomas' birthday. Since Tom needed to work the day of Thomas' birthday, we decided to do something special for him just the family. We stayed a night at the Rennaisance across from the park, that way we could just wake up, have breakfast and go. Breakfast took like an hour and a half due to slow service, but other than that, Thomas LOVED staying in a hotel room overnight!He wanted to go back there again and live there- although I don't know about that!I guess when you're a kid it's exciting- the change of someplace new- {I know I used to love it too. } The park was perfect weather-75 degrees and sunny.It started in the sixtys - we were gonna wear pants, but it warmed up fast. Glad we switched to shorts at the last minute cause it got hot! Thomas made sure we saw every attraction just about - all but the sea lions and concerts just about and kiddie rides. He wasn't in the mood this time. All the animals got checked off from Polar bears to penguins, Sea Turtles to Shamu,and Budweiser Clydesdales to Baluga whales! We saw it all! We saw the Shamu show { which was AWESOME!} Brendan couldn't sit that long so Tom sat outside with him which he didnt mind - he said he saw it a million times and was sure it hadnt changed much so was ok with just me and Thomas seeing it so had some bar- b - q instead {which was a rip off for the size of what he got}.We walked and saw till we couldn't see anymore and saw everything on the map. Everyone had a wonderful time. We even bought the yearly pass for for 10.oo more so we could come back all year just in case we DID miss something! Thomas {being the marine afficianado that he is} I think will love that ! All in all it was a very lovely day! Happy early birthday Thomas! Love you Buddy!
