We stayed at the Hilton San Antonio Spa Resort. I took pictures of the hotel today. Jamie checked us out and we are coming home. Its kind of bittersweet leaving, but we had a great vacation! We were going to try to see the Cowboys practice, but when we got there they had already left and wouldnt be back for a couple hours and we were not going to wait. Oh well.

Sea World

Today is our last day at the park, so we wanted to see the few shows we havent seen yet and visit the waterpark one more time. We woke up early and left to feed the dolphins before the park actually opened. How cool is that?! We got to feed the Sea Lions too, but that was just throwing fish down to them a few feet up – feeding the dolphins you actually get to touch them and feed it right to their mouths. After that we headed over to the waterpark (so we were one of the first ones there!) and went on a few slides and hung out for a couple hours there before it started to get crowded. I actually took my camera for a little bit and got a few pictures of Taylor and Jamie on the slides. Afterwards, we saw the last few shoes and rode the last few rides – Taylor even rode a mini roller coaster all by herself (Jamie was going to ride with her but they didnt have room, so she just went by herself)! She loved it! We played a few carnival games and won a Shamu stuffed animal and an alligator. This was right before we were going to buy souveniers, so it worked out that we didnt have to buy a shamu (we were planning on it) and instead bought Taylor a mermaid! We bought the giant windchime for us for really cheap – its totally cool lol.

I took a bunch of photos, so the rest are posted here.

Today we decided to take a break from the waterpark and see all the shows we can see and ride all the rides that we can. It was alot of fun, got to see almost all of the shows today. Sat in the splash zone for Shamu (different show than yesterdays) and got soaked! Saw some stunt shoes, a couple different sea lion shows (best shows!!), some 3D movies, and rode on a big river raft/tube thing with the whole family. It was a great day!

Mi Tierra & Shamu

We went to lunch at Mi Tierra today. It was really good food and decently priced, I was impressed. We then went to Sea World and spent the whole day at the waterpark. I didnt take my camera inside the waterpark, but we had alot of fun. Taylor went down the big slides with us and had a blast on the lazy river. Fun, Fun, Fun. After the waterpark closed we still had time to catch two shows before leaving. We got to see a beluga and dolphin show that was pretty neat, and the newest Shamu show. It was so crowded but we got decent seats just not in the splash zone. Very Neat!

The Alamo & Riverwalk

We arrived in San Antonio and decided to wait until during the week to visit Sea World. Instead we will head to the Children’s Museum, The Alamo and Riverwalk today. We had lunch/dinner at Salt Grass Steakhouse on the Riverwalk. What a fun day!
