Six Flags Discovery Kingdom AKA Marine World

Our friends Melanie and Kevin had tickets to Marine world and they invited us to go along. Who could refuse an offer like that!! Thanks guys it was great to get to hang out with you and it was great to have you share in one of Liliana's firsts!!

We had a great time! We saw various animal shows. We got to see the dolphins, killer whale, and sea lions perform. We also got to see the pigeons, walrus, birds and reptiles, giraffes, lions and tigers. Liliana loved to see all the animals. She clapped and sat so attentive during the sea lion and killer whale show!! She waved bye to all the birds as they flew away during there show!

She also had her first taste of an icee and a frozen lemonade. She loved them both but who wouldn't. lol!! We also got to go on a carousel ride, she enjoyed that as well, or at least when she got going!!

Kids really do say the cutest things. As we were watching the Dolphins one little girl says to a friend "Look dolphins have belly buttons, I've learned something already. Little did she know what that whole was really for lol!!

I was pleasantly surprised at the combination of animals and amusement rides at the park. It is a great place to take older kids. We had quite a time with one of the park employees, because we had to park the stroller in a designated area, yet lili was sleeping and we wanted to be in the back so we could watch the show and she could be in the shade and she did not allow it.In addition you had to remain seated in the arena. I guess if you decide to take ur children you may want to be prepared for this. One thing that you could do is take a backpack or carry them.

Thanks Melanie and Kevin for a good time!!

What fun!!!! You got to admit isn't it kind of nice to have your little one want someone other than mommy? Sometimes it is nice
