San Diego Family Vacation

Family vacation Day 1:

This past weekend we were able to visit San DIego, CA for 5 days. 
The car ride there was a little brutal. Callie is not very tolerant of long car rides and screamed the majority of 4 hours. Needless to say by the time we got to Sea World that first day we were all a little grouchy and worn out.  After it got dark we chose the Sea Lion Tonight show. The show consisted of an otter, a sea lion, and team members acting out and making fun of all the other sea world shows. We got there just as the Pre-show entertainment was starting. They had a guy "team member" lip syncing to different songs, including some female artists and costume changes. He was pretty dramatic and very funny. When we sat down I wasn't sure if our kids would even be interested  or how they would behave. As the guy on stage became more and more goofy with his performance Noah's laughter got increasingly louder, at one point he was full on hysterically laughing. Unfortunately, we didn't get any video footage of it, but managed to snap a few pictures. I have never heard Noah laugh so hard, he even caused a few heads to turn. During this hilarious scene Ron leaned over to me and said "this makes it all worth it"' (in reference our hellish drive that day). 
Per Mason's request we visited the shark tunnel FIRST!



  Shamu Show at night!

 
The kids passed out when we reached the hotel that night, we stayed in a local hotel close to Sea World.

  1. We went to sea world 2 yrs ago and I didn't think it was as much fun as it was when I was little. They changed a lot of the shows, but the kids didn't know any better and they enjoyed it!
