SeaWorld Day 2 - Lost Lagoon, Bay of Play, Clyde & Seamore Show

On our 2nd day at SeaWorld, we went to Lost Lagoon Water Park! The water park is actually located inside SeaWorld, so we entered SeaWorld just like the day before.
All 3 kids had swimsuits on and were ready to swim!

Waiting in line to get into the park. Clair & Alden kept pestering each other! It really got on our nerves!

The water park didn't open until 11am (1 hour after SeaWorld opened), so we went to Elmo's Bay of Play and rode some rides. I took the kids on Shamu's Express Rollercoaster. Clair & Doug walked around while we rode.

I took Samantha & Alden on Abby Cadabby's Rockin' Wave while Doug & Clair watched again.

Samantha & Alden loved it!

Big Bird's Spinning Reef was a hit for Alden, Samantha, Clair, & Doug! But...not me! For some reason this little kiddie ride freaked me out! I went on it with Clair and she rocked the "boat" a little too much for me! Alden, Samantha, & Doug had fun in their "boat" though!

Samantha liked the view from the top!

Clair was actually sitting still in this picture! I can't seem to remember this moment!

While Samantha & Alden went on Elmo's Dolphin Dive, Clair & I sat down and waited for the next Sesame Street show to start.

Elmo's Dolphin Dive!

When the clock struck 11:00am - we were off to the water park because we were already HOT! We first went to the Little Gator's Lagoon. The kids loved it here!

Samantha liked this Shamu slide, eventhough I think she was a little big for this area!

Clair loved this turtle. She thought it was her turtle because anytime another child came near her she would scream NO at them! Classic Clair...

Doug cooled off too!

She learned how to jump off the turtle too!

She refused to move from the top of the Shamu Slide and kids got mad at her!

After the Little Gator's Lagoon, we ate lunch before the crowds hit! Shamu had a dance show while we ate. If you ask me...Shamu looks funny in Hawaiian atire!


There were also other characters you could get your picture taken with. These characters all danced too!


After lunch, we walked to the activity pool where there were more activities for the kids to do.

The kids enjoyed these spraying teeter totters!

Clair loved it when she got sprayed.

We decided we had had enough of the water park, so we ventured back over to Elmo's Bay of Play area to play at the Splash Pad for a while.

We needed a mid-afternoon snack, so we grabbed a Shamu Ice Cream Bar (which melted before the kids even got it in their mouth!) and sat in the shade for awhile as the temperature climbed to over 100*.
Next up was the Vibrations water ski show. The kids loved the tricks these guys did! They were very talented!

After the show...all 3 kids looking my direction! Crazy!

We went down to the front to meet some of the performers!

We decided to stay for one more show! The Seamore & Clyde Show was hilarious!

The walrus was quite the hit with the kids!

We ate at Chick-fil-A for supper after we left SeaWorld! The kids had fun in the indoor play area and Doug & I got to relax a little bit! We LOVE Chick-fil-A and would love for one to be in Nebraska (other than in the Mutual of Omaha for Employees only!).

The kids read books to each other before bed.

We had to check out the next morning, so everything needed to be packed before we went to bed. It was a tight fit!!
