Up at 7am. Brekkie in bed courtesy of hubby again - mug of tea and a cream cheesecake. Quick shower and met Jo and Pete in Seaworld. We exchanged the one day pass for the 7 day one - just inside the gate on your left - all people have to be present *** they photograph you and put it on the card.)
No wait for Kraken so hubby and FIL go on it while Nanny looks after Ellis.
First show is the Dolphins show at 11am so we head for the show to get seats. I havent seen it before - my personal view - I liked it but not the annoying girl who's actually having the dream. The birds and acrobats were great but more dolphins please!

Clyde and Seamore were next at 1pm - I like this show - so many jokes and quips to keep you amused and Neil always appears at the end - oh sorry, no it was a Walrus!

It was our duty next to go and sample the free beer at Anheuiser Busch and then we did the sharks tunnel thing and Keywest area.
Then it was time for the "Making of Believe" show. I absolutely love these whales. I could spend the whole day at the viewing window and watching this show.Get ready to tilt your heads folks - sorry!

Fab show - dont miss it and get there at least 45 minutes boefre show starts or it will be full.
We then went to Happy Harbour - another new area for us - still in construction but quite a lot of it is open now - its a kiddie area - Ellis loved it. Tilt those heads...

We then did Wild Arctic - Ellis and I did the walking version and the others got shook til their bones fell out and met us later in the viewing area.

Just to let you all know- Dine with Shamu was only at 1.30pm so it was actually lunch with Shamu. Not sure if this is just *** the show isnt "officially" completed yet and the whales are still training but I though I'd let you know.
Had a quick blast round the shops and Nanny bought Ellis his scuba diving man he'd seen on Seaworlds website and then we left at 6pm.
Had a beer and wine in the room, quick shower and off to the Black Angus for dinner. Fantastic steak - I had the filet mignon again - could not fault it - ate every mouthful and I dont eat steak in England.
Skipped pud in the restaurant so it was back to the room for wine and cheesecake (of course).
Just to let you know that our camera has now packed up - so any photos from here will be the ones from previous days - so dont think we had the same clothes on (phew - whats that smell!) its just that I've borrowed photos to fill up the pages.
