On our final day in Texas, we went to SeaWorld in the morning for one last visit.
The SeaWorld welcome sign! It's ALMOST visible from the road! Definitely nothing like Disney World! (Once again...we've been spoiled with our many visits to Disney World!)
Walking up to the entrance.
Once last group shot of all 3 kids at the entrance.
Clair got to ride Abby Cadabby's Rockin' Wave this time! She loved it!
It is one crazy ride!
Clair just giggled and giggled with Samantha & Alden the whole time!
We walked over to feed the Sea Lions!
We always wondered what the difference was between Sea Lions & Seals! Well...now we know!
We bought some fish to feed them and they barked at us when they wanted more!
For some reason, Alden & Samantha decided to get along while we did that! I don't care why, I'll take it when I can get it!
Samantha feeding the sea lions.
Sunbathing!
We tried to get another picture, but Clair had had enough!
Samantha & Alden wanted to ride Journey to Atlantis one more time before we left the park. It opened at 11:00, so we had to run over there with the masses - almost like a rope drop at Disney World, but SeaWorld actually lets you RUN!
Clair was entertained by dropping her water cup and then leaning over to get it.
The big drop! We are in the 2nd row back on the right side of the picture.
Our big splash!!
We met Doug & Clair at Elmo's 4D movie after that.
Alden loves the 4D movies!
Clair actually left her glasses on the whole time!
Samantha was the only one cooperating as we left the park, so I wanted a picture of this jumping Shamu with her!
This is a big advertisement of the Shamu show we saw the 1st day we went to SeaWorld - One Ocean.
After leaving the park, we went back to the hotel to check out and then made one last trip to Chick-fil-A! Clair enjoyed her COW hat! She says MOOOOO way too well!
Next, we headed to return the rental van and then took a bus to the airport.
The kids actually behaved very well at the airport. We were there over 3 hours waiting for our flight. They had lots of room to run around and play!
Our plane finally arrived! We took off 30 minutes late!
Our flight home was not as fun as our flight to Texas. We were supposed to have a stop in Dallas, TX, but not have to get of the plane. However, there was something wrong with the plane, so we had to sprint all the way across the Dallas airport to our new gate and of course the kids had to go to the bathroom, so we had to quickly make a stop for that. The other plane waited on us and we actually got to board 1st!
We landed in Kansas City over an hour late and then had to wait for our suitcases and our shuttle. It was a long drive back on little highways (due to the flooded I-29 again), but we arrived back in Plattsmouth at about 3am! Doug had to work the next morning, but he did get to sleep in until 7:30, because his first patient wasn't until 8:30am that day! Lucky him!
