Wednesday - Sea World

Sunday we went to Sea World - this was not a Disney event, but we had always wanted to see it. It had many different kinds of animals - not just the killer whale - but these pictures will be the killer whales. Remember the poor girl who got killed about a year ago as he grabbed her braid running down the back of her head and pulled her in the water and drowned her?
Well these girls had their hair in buns - no long hair at all down the backs.

The Killer whale is the largest fish in the sea! And it is king of all others!



They had them trained very nicely we thought.



The trainers would give little talks and information to the crowd.



Grandson and daughter taking pictures. It was so hot, but we were having a good time anyway.



We were in the soak zone and it had a covered roof and I wondered how in the world we were going to get wet!



Well, we did get a little sprinkled - not much, but when you have three huge whales splash at the same time - you do get a little splash and it felt great.



Here they showing us how big they were.



And this is my grandson's first purchase. We held him off all we could, but when he has money in his pocket - it burns a hole in it. Ten dollars and lights up. Now he knew he needed it - but where is it now?

"Don't take yourself seriously. Take what you do seriously, and find the humor in as much of life as you can." ~ Ben Affleck



"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of the telescope. Which is what I do. And that enables you to laugh at life's realities." ~ Dr. Seuss

I have to tell you my GS has a great sense of humor!

Love,

Vacation Time



For almost free!

My daughter has been planning this trip for a couple years. She has a Disney credit card. For the last two years she and I have put EVERYTHING on her credit card. I pay my credit card every month - and never have interest charges - so I am blessed. And my daughter is such a smartie isn;t she?

She has so many points that - we are getting our hotel, food, and entrance to the park paid! And some gifts for the GS!

My daughter is paying gas. So I am going to pay for parking and misc.

I will be gone for a week - but never fear - chatty's here! She'll still have posts popping up IF you want to check.

A BRAIN TEASER FOR YOU:

A woman proves in court that her husband was murdered by her sister, but the judge decides that the sister cannot be punished. Why?

Answer tomorrow. Lol

Love,
