San Antonio

Sam had some vacation time to burn, so we made a last minute trip to San Antonio. We stayed at the Hyatt Hill Country 2 nights and spent 2 half days at Sea World. My favorite part of Sea World was feeding the dolphins, but Grace was afraid that they would bite our fingers. Madeline enjoyed throwing the fish to them, but I think she would have been more excited feeding farm animals.

Feeding sea lions and harbor seals...

Feeding lorkeets...Madeline wasn't afraid, but got aggravated when the birds kept trying to get in the stroller. Grace finally worked up the courage to feed a special bird named Brucie, who looked rehabilitated.

The girls enjoyed the dolphin/beluga show, but at the end of the orca show, Grace began to cry when she realized we weren't in the splash zone.

The weather was perfect and there were no crowds at the hotel so we had a great time each afternoon and evening swimming and tubing the lazy river there. The girls especially liked the beach area there, where Grace could swim and Madeline could play in the sand. Charlotte took a little nap in the shade.


A big dinner and evening swim was not a good combination for Grace's stomach, but bouncing back as kids do, wanted smores at the fire pit just 5 minutes after throwing up. It seemed nothing could spoil such a great weekend.
