Our trip to Sea World/17th Anniversary



Our trip to Sea World was fun. It was nice to get away for a bit.
We left on Friday after the milking was done and stopped in Breckenridge to eat Breakfast. Where did we eat? McDonald's of course. Hahaha.

Later we stopped in Fredricksberg for a leg stretcher. We walked through a few stores. They have some interesting stuff there. One store had "old" toys. It sure can take you back. Of course it went a little further back than my childhood but was still interesting.

Back on the road we headed for San Antonio. We got to our hotel at 3:00 and checked in and went and seen our room. NICE!! I think it was the nicest I have ever stayed in. Now, we headed for Sea World. We got on the wrong road...It took a little longer than it should have. I think we got there around 5 or so. We went in and found the water. And later seen the night show of Shamu. That was fun. We sat in the splash zone and we sure got splashed. Especially at the end of the show. And I never thought about it but the water was salty. Go figure. Hahaha.

Later at the Hotel, we got our stuff in there and then went and found a Whataburger and had a midnight snack. For real. Our son went to sleep there in the booth.

The bed back at the hotel was soooo comfortable. I wanted to sneak it out and put it in our truck. LOL.

Saturday, back at Sea World, we seen several of the shows, played in the water and rode a few rides. Little man had a good time. After the rides, he would say, "lets do it again". Of course the waiting in line was not so fun so we opted not to.

The trip home was LOOOONG. I thought we would never get home. We stopped again in Fredricksburg for supper. We went to a Mexican restaurant and it was yummy. I slept on and off on the way home. My husband is such a good driver. We were about 20 minutes from home and we came up on an accident that was being cleared. We had to wait a few minutes for them to get the crashed car off the road. Hope everyone was OK.

We finally got home at 1:30pm. Whew.

Sunday we didn't do much. This was our 17th wedding anniversary and we just spent the day resting up after church.


Now, I can't wait to do it again.

Vacation!! YEA!!!




We are going to Sea World. Yea!!

I went yesterday to Seaworld.com and was able to set up a vacation for our family. We are getting 3 Annual Passes, and a stay in a nice hotel. Our son is getting to go for free which is an $80.00 savings on the Annual Pass. This will be his first time to go to Sea World. It will be our 2nd time to go. Or it may be the 3rd, I can't remember. LOL.

Now that we have Annual Passes, we will probably go two times this weekend and then again for a day later in the year. It is about a 4 1/2 hour drive there.

It has been a LONG time since we have really been on vacation. We did go 2 hours away to a hotel 3 years ago for my husbands birthday. This will be our 17th Anniversary vacation which is on Sunday the 12th. I am looking forward to it.
