Daddy was done with all of his meeting for the week and wanted to take Ellie back to her favorite place, Sea World. Although we had already been to SW, Ellie was acting like she had never been there before. We started by visiting the pacific white dolphin that is grey, black and white spotted. Ellie kept calling it Shamu because they look a lot alike. Keeping in the black and white theme we stopped by to see the penguins and then the polar bears. Unfortunately, she wasn’t too impressed with either so we moved on to see other exhibits. So we took her to see her favorite thing at Sea World…Shamu. The stadium was very crowded but Ellie didn’t care if she got a glimpse of him from a corner seat on a bench. She was just so excited to see him AGAIN!
By the middle of the day she was pretty tired of being in & out of the stroller so we took her to the Sesame Street Place play area. We rode all of the rides again and she got to run around with the other kids. That’s exactly what she needed.
Earlier in the week we talked about maybe going on the Skyride at Sea World. There was no better time to do that than during a beautiful San Diego sunset. The ride overlooks SD's Mission Bay and part of the park. That was a pretty neat experience.
After dinner we got lucky and found a tiny spot to watch the night dolphin show and then to the night time “Shamu Rocks” show.
Ellie started off really excited to see the Shamu show but I think he just too long to come out. She got very fussy about 5 min. into the show and fell asleep. Yup, she fell asleep with the music blaring and a couple of thousand people cheering Shamu on. We felt so bad that she missed the last show but there was no waking her up. She was done!! Chris and I slipped out to beat the crowd in the parking lot because we were tired too.
