Sea World

You may have already read about our day at Sea World on our Children's blogs - we are slack and are still trying to catch up on ours which is lower on the priority list (sorry about that). In short, we had another great day. Sea World is only 1km from Broadwater Caravan Park, so it was a very quick trip across town. Easy parking blah, blah, blah and we were there as the gates were opening at 10am. We ran around some of the exhibits for a while before the seal show started at 11am. The seal show was entertaining with a dramatic story being played out with the seals - OK, but not what we expected in terms of information about seals.


Again we ran around more of the exhibits with the Polar Bears being our favourite. They were two orphaned brother bears who were extremely animated as the played and wrestled each other in and out of the water - very cute for 2 huge animals.The best show of the day was without doubt the dolphin show. It showcased the trained aspect of these amazing creatures with many tricks, but also communicated lots about them and we all left with a deep appreciatation for them and now unique they are. We also felt like retraining as a dolphin trainer as their job looked like a good option (not saying engineering or schooling is bad !!!).
We jumped on a number of rides which were a bit of fun too.

Overall we have had a great time so far. We have all enjoyed being together, experiencing new things and just relaxing. The weather has been perfect as well which is just another added blessing.
