Going to Sea World tomorrow and Saturday.... Im excited I have never been... so this will be a new thing for me and the family.... That will be an excellent start to the weekend. Monday will be lunch at the in-laws, dinner at the parents, fireworks... should be a great weekend.

Anyone else got something happening?

I love Sea World. Nice place to just walk around. More leisurely pace than Disneyland, and no 1 hour lines. Make sure to see the Pets Rule show. Trainers rescue animals and put them in a show, it's my favorite show there.

awesome, we're gonna get the fun passes and probably go about 5-6 times over the summer... that coupled with our Knotts tickets will keep us busy and having fun all summer.... Ill probably see that show when we go in August, tomorrow is the dolphin show and saturday shamu....

BTW I hate going to Disneyland.

My sister has two kids 5 and 7. When they go visit Ma for a couple weeks they get the fun pass and go to Sea World half a dozen times. I'm sure when Michelle is older we will do the same.

thats awesome... I hope you get to do that soon... its always nice to go see your parents, and then have something like that to go do. So when are you coming back to the states again?

Chinese New Year, the end of January. Never made it this year because wife was knocked up. Dying for some fish without faces, deli sandwiches, banana cream pie and of course Mexican food.

Journey to Atlantis, that's it.

callas01 · 07-02-2011, 04:10 AM

there will be another roller coaster called ride the Ray in the summer of 2012... I want ride that too...

I went to see Transformers 3 today and it has the typical story line and acting but the visuals and soundtrack are top notch. When it comes out on blu I have the feeling it's going to be a whole system workout like Tron and Battle LA. Our subs are definitely going to be working overtime on this one. How was the Sea World today?

I expected it to be more like #2, but hopefully a better story line overall. I was thinking by the previews it would be a HT workout... can't wait.

OMG.... Sea World was a blast. I went on the main roller coaster Journey to Atlantis twice, went and touched a dolphins tail fin, got soaking wet from Shamu splashing us with his tail... took a sky cabin ride across the bay, saw belluga whales, polar bears, penguins... and so much other stuff... it was great.... going back in August.... we got annual passes so we are going to go about 5-6 times over the summer and then back again next year before they expire.... Gods been good on my paychecks, so Im taking advantage of it....

what did you do today??

We went to Marine Land in Niagara Falls for the weekend last summer and they sound very similar, the kids had a great time. It's roughly a 7hr drive from us so we won't be making very many trips there. Before going to the movies my daughter wanted to go strawberry picking ( it's her favorite food ) so we picked three baskets full.
The third installment of Transformers is better than the second but still just a popcorn flick, leave your mind at the door. I really wish they would have left the parents out of this one though and made it 20 minutes shorter, it seemed to drag a bit in certain spots.

that is about what I expected from TF3.

San Diego is about 1-1.25 hrs from me... so its not a hard drive to make. Takes about a 1/4 tank of gas.. not to bad for a round trip... Im very fortunate to live where I do in SoCal... I can get to just about anything in 30 minutes... beach, mountians, desert.... LA in 45-1 and San Diego in about 1 to 1-1/4 hrs...
