Day four, Monday, we went to Sea World. All the Anhieser Busch theme parks offer free admission to military families once per year (one park a year). We went to Sea World to see Shamu! Wesley really liked seeing the dolphins, "bish" (fish), sharks, rays, manatees, and penguins. They had an awesome tunnel you walked through to see the sharks. Christopher and I also went on the Journey to Atlantis ride, the flume ride there. It was a lot of fun, with a big surprise at the end (no spoilers here!). Wesley cooled down in the water play area they have there. He was having a great time. I got sprayed all down my back with water by some punk kid. Turns out it didn't really matter because Christopher sat us in the fourth row for the Shamu show. Let me tell you, Shamu is a HUGE whale, and he doesn't mess around when he splashes you. We got hit three times by a wall of water off that guy's flipper. Wesley was pretty much in shock, then cried a little since he hates getting water in his face. Luckily we had the foresight to buy a towel and it was wrapped in plastic so we could dry off. That water was salty and yucky as it dried. So we went back to SOG where we washed up and had dinner and decided we were having such a good time that we would stay two extra days. We talked to the front desk, where they even extended our R&R package for us. We bought two more tickets for Disney and prepared to enjoy the extra two days of our vacation.
