California trip Day 3: Sea World
It's kind of my fault we went to Sea World. Second only to Halloween for Frankie is Sea Animals. Jeremy and I talked about it, and really felt like we would regret not taking him to Sea World while we were so close. Everyone obliged and joined us.
But I must say, if you're used to the standard of Disneyland, Sea World is quite the let down (and really not much cheaper!) Plus they try a bit too hard to be inspiring.
We did enjoy ourselves though. We hit all three shows first thing in the morning, and it was HOT. By the time we got to Shamu, the last show, Frankie was pretty much done. We sat somewhat close to the front and told him we might get splashed. We did NOT get splashed, and he had a meltdown from the disappointment.
Lunch was soon after, however, and with every bite I could see him getting happier.
I think Frankie's favorite part of the day was going through the shark tunnel. He bought a tube of sharks with his own money at the gift shop. He wanted to leave after buying them, because we told him he couldn't open them until we left.
The girl with the ponytail does not belong to us.
The day before, this is the kind of fish that Jeremy caught. Frankie is a more compliant model then Jeremy.
The last stop of the day was the little playground. Mayzie was a good sport and played with Frankie until she was exhausted.
New Buzz Lightyear jammies we brought, ready for California Adventure the next day!
