Today was a Sea World Day. We have all been to Sea World before. One of the funniest stories from our travels happened at Sea World back. We all like roller coasters - the higher, the faster, the better! The Kracken is one of our favorites. So a couple of years ago before we went we checked the height requirements and you have to be 54" tall. We checked Tina and she was right on the nose of 54". So that morning many years ago we walked up to the height bar and she was just shy of touching the height of the bar. So Rod asked the guy if it mattered what shoes she has on. The guy said "all I care about is if her head touches this bar". So we went to buy platform flip flops, walked right back over there, her head touched the bar and we were in line for the ride. When we got ready to load... yep she had to take her flip flops off but it didn't matter. That day we rode that coaster at least 5 times. They loved it.
Obviously she has grown in the last couple of years and is only an inch shorter than me... so nothing like that happened this time. They bragged on a new coaster that is now their favorite - the Manta. Wish I could have been there with them. Guess I will have to hit it the next time.
There are not many pictures from Sea World, but here are a few.
