Nightmare Memorial Day crowd
I start the post again with crowd pics but Seaworld is nowhere near Disneyland's efficiency methinks



Ruffled after more than 3 hours journey to get to Sea World. Traffic was THAT bad



Look at the people at the famous Shamu show



Believe-Sea World's Shamu show



Magnificent jumps and huge splashes



Shamu shamu!



Mama and baby shamu



Shivering after the Shipwreck Rapids ride.




Flamingo Lagoon



sleeping flamingos.. their slender necks look like snakes tho. shudder



mama duck and ickle cute duckling!



The ducks are quite naughty at times.. pecking the poor flamingos' stick thin legs




Washed out.. did someone bleach them.. i expected flamingoes to be pink!



Like these!




fake flamingo- contraptiona elweirdo





Me getting all my family in the shot. We were waiting to get into some RL Stine 4D show.. which was really lame btw




El cheapo trick no2: Seaworld photos more expensive than Disneyland i think! Journey to the Atlantis ride was not bad actually.. there's this huge drop downwards, and i tot it was over so soon.. coz the wait was horrendous.. i was so bloody cold! my teeth couldnt stop chattering and i was shaking so much i felt like pooping! but anyways the ride took us into this tunnel afterwards, sorta like a lift to elevate us, then whoooooshhhh... the exhilarating rush on the way downnnnn



Manatees- I think they're more known to us as dugongs.. So adorable la.. the guide said they have scars on their tails coz they are too slow, as in when they hear boats coming, they flip to avoid their heads getting banged, but they move too slowly so the propellors hit their tails instead.. ooh.. thats gotta hurt!



Only clear shot we can get is with fake manatee




Milk got, hmmm?





posing with the pic of the otter my sis loved so much.. didnt see any live ones around



Altogether now.--- aaawwww





Clueless? The directions are pretty confusing in Sea World..



Took a lot of shots of the seals i dunno why.. oh oh.. Do you know what's the diff between a seal and a sea lion? contrary to popular belief, the black sleek ones u see performing at the zoo? Those are called sea lions! (look at the bottom left photo-the one at the left!) whereas seals are the brown, more spotty ones. Sea lions have long flippers which they use to push them forward when they move about whereas seals have shorter ones so they move around by rumbling on their bellies!
Look at the bottom right photo.. seals also like to pose hor?



Seaworld wouldve been much nicer if it were sunny that day! And less crowded of course. Don't miss the pet show though! It's one of the nicest part of Seaworld! Sadly, I was too busy enjoying the show instead of thru a lens



A lotta roast/grilled stuff here.. warm on a cold day but dont like the smokiness



It was soooo late when we finally had dinner at TGIF just a stone's throw away from our hotel.. and dinner was goooood..
