We did it! I was having some reservations (as I always do) about staying overnight with the girls in a hotel. I was up for Sea World but not so sure how the rest would go. We had such a fun weekend though and the hotel worked out just perfectly! I'm really glad that Ryan didn't bend to my hesitation and we went for it. (Maybe I shouldn't write that - he's going to hold me to it with every other reservation and some are actually valid.)
Sea World was great for so many reasons and I'm just too tired to name them. Here are some pics.

This seemed like a good idea but I was lifting up Noelle with my knee and trying to stick Natalie's head out at the same time :)

Noelle loves the tide pools, so this was perfect. She loved the aquariums because she could run around from window to window. She sure likes her freedom.

Here's an action shot on the way to the Shamu "Believe" show. Pretty amazing show.

I love this picture! Everyone in the crowd is supposed to do the sign for jump (or something, now I forget) and they chanted "Shamu, Shamu". Here's Noelle and Ryan joining in. This was our last activity of the day and you can see the tiredness in Noelle's eyes.

I was holding way too many things in my hands and we were surrounded by people leaving the Shamu show, but Ryan wanted to get this background. This was the best I could do.
