Kaleidoscope Travel & Cruise

Article Published: April 26th, 2007

Sea World in mission beach was the next stop of our winter get away – just north of San Diego and about 90 minutes from Anaheim. It began as an animal park for marine life but now has grown into a theme park that tries to make each of its attractions educational in some way. Sea World offers a number of entertaining attractions. Journey to Atlantis is the newest ride in the park, takes you on a journey to the ancient city of Atlantis aboard a water coaster, past exhibits of black and white dolphins. Shipwreck rapids is Sea Worlds version of the popular rafting rides. At Wild Arctic, we boarded a simulated “jet helicopter” for a flight no one will soon forget through the arctic tundra. With whales, walruses, arctic foxes, seals, and polar bears along the way; you sure won’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind attraction! We also took in some of the great exhibits in the park. At the Forbidden Reef, we got up close and personal with bat rays. At the Penguin Encounter, there were six cold weather species of penguins – absolutely adorable. We visited Rocky Point Preserve, where Alicia and Jessica enjoyed feeding the dolphins. We also watched the three top shows in the park – Dolphin Discovery where the dolphins performed tailwalks, jumps, and back flips, Clyde And Seamore In Deep Deep Trouble was a hilarious sea lion and walrus show and Believe –is the most sensational killer whale show ever. California has so many fabulous attractions you will want to go back again and again.
