Sept. 29, Monday - Overcast and predicted rain so we went to Sea World instead of Blizzard Beach (we all had a plus left on our Park hoppers from March). We drove even though we could have walked, because we planned on comming back to the villa for lunch. We wanted to get there at opening but didn't get through the gates until 9:30am. We had close parking without paying extra and low crowds all day. We started off with Kraken
couples taking turns staying with the kids. Next we did Journey to Atlantis 
and got way wet!! Kids who at first didn't want to ride, but then decided to ride made this take alittle while. It was time to get front and center seats for Shamu ( 11:30 am ). Kids enjoyed this. Next Dsis and I took kids to Happy Harbor play area while the Dads went to the Hospitality center for their "happy sample". Dsis's family got their picture taken on a fake Shamu, our DD was napping by this time in the stroller. The picture didn't turn out so they all took their socks/shoes (again!) off and tried again. This made us a bit late for the Dolphin show (which is my fav) so we were in the nosebleed seats( 1:30pm). The kids still enjoyed the show. We drove home for a hot lunch and rest then went back in time for the dolphin feeding. Everyone got a chance to pet a dolphin. Then we visited the Penguin Encounter (went through twice), then the Shark Encounter. I wanted to get good seats for the Sea Lion and Otter show so we went there early. At the Sea World in CA, the Sea Lion Show (when I was a child) ran out of seats for the last show. Orlando's stadium is much bigger so I worried needlessly. It felt good to sit down and the men went for another sample 
. Show was at 5:45 and the kids liked this best of all. Show ran over as one of the Sea Lions went non-co-op. We rode Kraken again and forgot to check out the Manatees on our way out 
. Kids were happy to get home and play together. Really liking having a villa.
