Day 4!
On Saturday I was able to pick Chris up at 9am and we spent the morning together. LeAnn came and picked us up and we went and bought Chris luggage for going to Tech School. LeAnn brought us lunch and she even brought doughnuts. Chris was pretty happy about the doughnuts. I should have documented the moment, but it was gone so fast. :-)
We then headed to Sea World! It was the craziest thing all of a sudden it started pouring and within 1 minute (no joke 1 minute) the streets were flooded and you couldn't see more than 5 feet in front of you. I was really happy that I wasn't driving because I would have started crying. I'm so grateful that LeAnn was able to get us through the freak storm safely! It only lasted about 5 minutes. At first I was really excited because I love the rain, let's be honest, it just doesn't rain like that in Palm Springs, but then it got kinda scary because the streets were really flooded!
So once we made it to Sea World we got in line and got out tickets, for FREE!!!
I thought that the glass block arch was actually pretty impressive.
Getting out tickets!
So, once we were in Sea World it started to pour on us again and so we had to run over and buy an umbrella in the gift shop. It was seriously so crazy how it would just start to dump and you would be running through puddles in seconds. I'm pretty sure my feet were wet the entire time we were at Sea World. Anyways... the first thing we did was go see the dolphins because I knew that I wanted to touch one. I was so excited when it was our turn. Sadly all of the pictures were awful and so I didn't want to buy any and I was too protective of my camera to bring it out and take pictures. Yes, I know, my bad! Oh well, what can you do!
After we got to touch the dolphins we headed over to the aquarium to see the fish and sharks. They had some pretty big sharks in their tanks.
It began to pour again and so we went and got something to eat so that we could sit out of the rain. All of the seating was outside though and so we had to put up an umbrella and wipe off the seats so our butts didn't get soaked. I got a funnel cake and Chris got ice cream. I was a little disappointed with my funnel cake. It wasn't the best I've ever had. But it looked good.
Notice all of the water on the table because everything was seriously wet!
We went to this show called Azul and it was really cool. It was nice to be under the roof while it poured, again. The show was pretty cool because they had whales, and dolphins and birds and then the people were dressed in these funky costumes to make them look like fish and stuff.
I seriously took too many pictures of the show, but they aren't that exciting unless you were there. So I have just added a couple to help you all get a feel for what it was like. Chris was pretty stoked about the seesaw swing because they did flips off it into the pool. He says we have to have one in our house now.... we will see about that... I can just see a bunch of broken bones and I don't really want to deal with that.
We went to this sea lion show too, but it was mainly for kids. I kept thinking the whole time that Joe, my nephew would have probably loved it. Part of it was funny, but it was mainly just a place to sit down because my feet hurt.
Sea World was a lot of fun and we were all exhausted by the end of the day. I was certainly ready to go home and take shower and get to sleep. I can honestly say that I have experienced humidity now and I don't really love it, especially in jeans. It would have been a lot more enjoyable if I was in shorts. Let's not even get started on what happens to our hair! There are no products and no hair appliances that can make your hair look good while in humidity. That is a fact!
Just one more day to go!!
