Don't make fun, i had this in my back pack from when we went on the Jurassic park ride at Universal..They sold them for 1.00 at universal and 5.00 at Sea World... Best dollar i spent, being in my opinion "Chilly" out....In San Diego.


I love this one of the Sea Lion he was sooo hungry!

This was the 1st time at Sea World for me...I finally got to see Shamu!!!! It was a perfect day. We got to feed the sea lions,That was great for the boys they loved that! It was funny though because the seagulls kept flying and taking the fish right out of our hand.It took a few "trial and error" to learn to be quick so the seagulls wouldn't fly over and steal the sea lions food.
We petted "Rays" I really loved that and really wanted to get a great shot of the boys petting them, but was so excited to get to pet them(the rays were so friendly which i know sounds strange but they seemed to like being petted(if thats possible) along with the dolphins(i think we have some pictures on our last and final Disc. of the dolphins), The shows were great especially the night Rock and Roll with Shamu. We ended the day with yet another display of fireworks and crashed out at Midnight... One day to go and vacation is over...Maybe i will finish all this by Monday "Labor Day" then i can catch up to the rest of Summer....

Sea World

Beach in San Diego

I Saw this pretty church when we were driving in "circles" and tried to get a shot of it because Dax didn't want to "stop in the middle of street" We got a little lost for about a half hour, it was an adventure as we like to call it.. Got to a spot on the beach and hung out(to me it's like going to the Oregon Coast/Northern Calf. Thought it was chilly here hi 60's.. Tanner saw some tweenie's so he was having one on his preteen moments(you can't say anything to him let alone look at him and you are embarrassing him...) it's sort of funny and i remember doing the same at his age...

Few more random pictures from Universal... Had to get the shot of Dax with the Raiders logo behind them. i got some cute pictures of Sponge bob with the boys on my cell phone i will have to e mail them to here...We were so tired that night we didn't get home until midnight. The following day we decided to take the day off from everything and just drive to San Diego get our room and rest go get a bite and see the beach. I was glad we broke up the trip a little... Next stop Sea world and the wild animal park.....

After the day at Universal City we went and hung out at City Loft and had a great dinner there. They had shops restaurants and bars, and lit up like a mini Vegas. it was pretty neat.

universal

I thought universal was just okay. It was fun but i felt like we were nickel and dimed to death. Our favorite was the new Simpson ride. it was definitely one of the better rides there. (another flight simulator) It was like you were really on a roller coaster, silly plot line too typical Simpson's.. We did the whole day there went on everything. Mummy was cool. The Water World show was cool. The tour was Fine.. Loved the desperate housewives block and Norman Bates of course. (see Above) being a Hitchcock fan i liked it, boys loved the jaws and earthquake. We saw where the fire was just recently.
