FLORIDA TRIP, DAY 4

Tuesday morning we were planning to head out to Sea World. I woke up feeling pretty rotten from having the stomach flu overnight. I decided that I couldn't miss Sea World with my kids. Kim & Drew still weren't feeling the best either, but we all went anyway. We had an AWESOME day despite feeling rotten.

We saw the Shamu show, a dolphin show and a sea otter/sea lion show. The kids fed both dolphins and sting rays. We saw manatees, penguins, gators, sharks, dolphins, whales and many, many other creatures. It was a wonderful time.

Funny thing...when we were walking into Sea World, we ran into Jake's friend Mitch & his family. We also saw them at the dolphin show. I saw another family from our church several times and Michael ran into a group he knew. Small world!

After spending the entire day walking through Sea World, we were all ready to get back to the condo. We headed out to the parking lot & realized in all of our excitement we forgot to remember which row we parked in. The rows were lettered A-Z! It was a nightmare trying to find our car since there were only about 500 other white mini vans in that lot. After quite some time, Michael found the van & we were on our way to the condo. The non-sick people ate dinner from McDonald's. Kim, Drew & I opted out of food for that day...just in case!

We decided that unless someone else came down with the stomach bug, we'd spend Wednesday at Sea World again doing the things that we loved from Tuesday & some other things we'd missed. Tune in tomorrow to see how that went!
