Sea World

My mother went to Israel for two weeks - yeah she is pretty adventurous. My dad, however was here and wanted to do something adventurous as well. So we rounded the troops, piled into one car and road-triped it to California for the weekend!

First Stop:

Sea World

Grandpa and the boys getting pumped for the gates to open

Caleb was our guide for the day at Sea World - he looked like this most of the day

Ernie and the Polar Bear

The boys soaked after riding the Raging Rapids - we were all soaked, luckily it was sunny and we dried pretty fast



Watching Shamu



Checking out the aquarium and sea turtles

Ernie & Caleb got to feed the Sea Lions 

After a full day of lots of Sea Creatures and fun rides we were all pretty exhausted so we headed back to Carlsbad and went swimming at our amazing hotel pool.

Beach

Our hotel was right across from the beach so we woke up early and took a walk on the beach I love the beach in the morning, its so peaceful and beautiful

My dad looking for some sea life and checking out the sail boats

We thought it would warm up, but it ended up being overcast all day - so we opted for a walk and some wave chasing instead of boogie boarding and body surfing

That didn't stop these crazy boys - after about 5 minutes they had their shirts off and braved the cold water

Baby Bean likes the Ocean - I can tell already

They also got into a mega seaweed fight with Grandpa......

Grandpa 1 - Ernie 0

Yeah he got a giant seaweed plant in the face, it was gross

After the beach we headed over the San Diego Temple

We hit up Old Town San Diego and saw the Mormon Battalion. Caleb was the luickly pick and got to dress up. I love love love this place, they do such a neat job with the display. Mark & I went 2 years so it was

fun to go back

Road trips are awsome - I like them.
