here's another instalment

here we are at midway being delayed 2 1/2 hours. you will see we pulled out the lap top movie before we even left the city!
finally in sunny Fl. we picked up our rental car and drove to one of our favorite restaurants trails end and fort wilderness for dinner. However it took us a while to find our hotel (remember this part of the trip was a prize we won so I didn't know anything about the hotel) we ended up calling and they guided us in. by that time we were all exhausted from the day of travel and wished we would have skipped the nice dinner. we all went right to bed to get ready for our day at sea world!
here we are
this is their roller coaster it is, well it leaves your head spinning. At 65 mph it goes upside down 7 x. WOW this was fun!
while me and the boys went on Kraken David took the little kids to feed the seals. don't worry we switched after and D got to go upside down too.
this was the dolphin show, the best I have ever seen, in fact this was most of our favorite thing at the park
here we are petting sting ray

Believe is the name of this show
of coarse most people call it shamus show
uncle gladdy we said hi to shamu for you just like you asked
we were very happy to find the fountains, it was hot even D and I got in

this is out of order for some reason, could be that it is 1 am. this is us in the "soak zone" at Shamu
he was HUGE! I really think he was bigger than a bus.
a great day at sea world and a great prize!
now sky had heard about this the worlds biggest Mcdonalds on the travel channel so when we drove past we had to stop. No we did not eat there remember our rules - no mcd"s on vacation. the entire upstairs is an arcade that's where this was. The weird thing is that they serve more that Mcd's food, they had deli sandwiches and pasta not sure about that.and the play land wasn't all I expected.
this just says it all. What luck that we found it!
