One of the fun outings that we had while cousin Adlight was visiting was to travel to San Antonio on a Saturday and meet up with some of the Owuor's for a sightseeing adventure. We enjoyed visiting the Riverwalk, the Alamo, and then SeaWorld for the highlight of our adventures. An unfortunate aspect of the day was that the temperature was in the upper 90's and quite humid, so keeping hydrated and cool was a challenge. Still Savannah's favorite part of the day was probably riding in the stroller with her cousin Kioni at SeaWorld. Her least favorite moments where when Shamu and the other killer whales would come out of the water and onto the platform with their trainers. This terrified her nearly as much as being held by Santa Claus. Watching the orcas was otherwise a very cool experience. It was wonderful to behold these massive animals and to see them do their tricks.
My favorite part of the day was visiting the penguin exhibit where it was cool and air-conditioned. :) I think everyone else especially enjoyed riding the roller coasters (especially Michael as it was his first time ever) and seeing the fun pictures capturing their terror and glee during the rides. We thoroughly enjoyed visiting the SeaWorld, and look forward to the opportunity of doing so again soon.

Poor Savannah! I laugh out loud every time I think of her sitting on Santa's lap. I can only imagine the look on her face seeing those huge whales coming out of the water. You need to post pictures of Michael on a roller coaster if you have any. I am glad that he liked it.
I agree with Randi, and will look forward to seeing pictures of Michael's new experience on the roller coaster.
I will always appreciate the look of aught when he experienced snow at Christmas for the first time, or eating lemon maranque pie, carrot cake, and zucchini bread. So many things that we take for granted in life. Its like watching a child's firsts, very refreshing.
