Super Duper Exciting SeaWorld!

After going to SeaWorld three days in a row after Christmas, we went back again this weekend for more fun!  Yesterday (Sunday) was by far the most exciting!  The pictures at the end show our most exciting experience after asking the trainer lots of questions, having adorable girls who are so into sea creatures, and meeting one VERY sweet and generous trainer!  Here's the story:

We admired the giant Christmas tree (1/5):


 Did a little modeling:

 Running:
Dancing:
 More running:
 Turtle game playing (1/6):

 Looking for dolphins after the show (our 5th dolphin show!):

 Excited with our results:
Happy shivers:



 Checking out the sea lions:
Petting the rays:


 Measuring ourself to the rays:

And, drumroll please.......

Petting the dolphins with a trainer at Dolphin Point!



Gabrielle LOVED petting them, Nicolette LOVED being so close (Daddy is holding her in the purple sweater):

Up close with Gracie, the Pacific bottlenose dolphin:



Mommy told the trainer that she had no idea how much this meant to our two girls!  (I think the trainer was very taken with hearing that Gabrielle wants to be a veterinarian for sea creatures when she grows up!)

Here is a video of our fun.  Mommy was trying to take video and pictures at the same time, so please be patient with the video!
