We woke up bright and early! ☀️ Ok, not really, we all kind of rolled out of bed, minutes before breakfast closed downstairs and ran down!
But then, we were ready! Sea World Aquatica here we come!
After a lengthy ticket line we were all ready to get in the water! We had such a blast, we closed the place down being the last riders on the body slides.
When we first arrived though we were so hot and sweaty from standing in line that we went straight to the lazy river. The place was starting to fill up so we floated around before we checked out rides. 
Then it was off to explore the park…little did we know the park hit maximum capacity and had to be closed to anyone else…it was one of the busiest days they have ever had! But, you know us, we made the absolute best of spending the day with 5,000 people!
Our first rides were tube slides…I was terrified! Jack and Ry rode the toilet bowl together, Staci and Bree the purple tube and Alan and I followed behind them. Such a great time! Then it was off to wallahalla wave! Yowza it looked scary…at first 4 of us bowed out, but Daddy talked Bree into going with him and Ry. She loved it!
Our next stop was the stingray pond! We had reservations to wade in to touch and feed the stingrays!!
Bree was terrified!!! But she did it, with a lot of prodding from daddy and mommy. She didn’t go out far, but she went a little.
Then it was off to stingray falls!
So much fun!!!
When we got off stingray falls it was 8:02…the park closed at 8, we didn’t think we had time to hit the body slides but the lifeguard had not closed the ride so off we went!!! We all picked a partner and raced down!
Bree beat Mommy, Jack beat Ryanna and Daddy beat Aunt Staci!
Aquatica was amazing! Such a great day in the water!
We had free meals in the park so since Aquatica was closed we walked over to Sea World for dinner at the Smokehouse. BBQ pork and Chicken!
The perfect ending to the day!!
