I know...I didn't update last night and I know that you are all waiting for your daily installment of the activities in our life.
Hehe! :) The
internet was extremely slow last night and it was taking forever to download all the pictures so I gave up and went to bed. I finished it this morning, so enjoy!

We headed to Sea World for our second visit. We started with a pet show with cats, dogs, pigs, rats and even a skunk! It was cute and both girls were enthralled. We were a little slower on this visit because we didn't feel the frenzy to get everything in. It was another sunny day, but there was quite a breeze and it was only in the low 60's. We all had our coats on.

After the pet show we wandered over to Happy Harbor, which is a play area for kids. On the way we saw a beautifully landscaped area and stopped for a family picture. Yeah for family!!

Yep, she loves Florida! Yep, she loves vacation! Yep, she loves Sea World!

Happy Harbor was filled with kid rides, carnival games, and a huge climbing section. We talked Abby into going on the
Shamu Express (which is a kid sized
roller coaster) and the Lobster Ride (which pulled her high in the air and then dropped her slowly). She didn't like either one! She screamed and cried on both. But good for her for trying them. Secretly I was rejoicing because I HATE
roller coasters too, so it's nice to have another one on my side :)

Grace has been such a trooper this whole trip. She has tagged along with us to every show, she has watched as we all went on rides, she has put up with getting in and out of the
stroller again and again. Today must have been enough because she fell asleep during
Shamu's Believe show and slept for several hours.

Abby has been begging for a
Shamu stuffed animal so today before we left for the afternoon we headed to the
Shamu gift shop and she picked out her favorite. She slept with it last night and it has been with her ever since.

Sea World turned their Arctic area into a Polar Express simulation ride. At the end of the ride you were in the Arctic exhibit and Santa was waiting for you. Abby was quite shy, but did manage to ask him for a unicorn pillow pet.

We went back after dinner for another round. There were lots of trees in the lake and we watched a Sea of Trees Light Show. It was so good. The trees lit up and the lights were dancing with the music. I know the picture isn't that good, but there were so many trees and it really was beautiful.

This is Shivers, the polar bear, and Abby was so excited to meet him! He was the most animated creature we ran into all day.

While we were waiting for our last show, an ice skating show, we entertained Abby with this huge
Shamu statue. She loved climbing all over it.
