should have told us something right away that this was going to be a scary ride. Luke, who is our thrill seeker, had been begging us to go on this ride at SeaWorld. There was only one condition we had, he would have to talk his little brother into riding this ride. If we are going to do it, we will do it as a family. Landry HATES scary rides unlike his brother. So on the second day of SeaWorld Lauren and Luke bribed their little brother with candy, toys, promises, etc. Just about anything to talk him into riding this ride with the rest of us. Casey and I both aren't that fond of rollercoaster but we kind of secretly thought that Landry would never give in. He did.....on no! As we stood in line to ride this and heard scream after scream we all kind of started second guessing this idea. We piled into the ride together as a family.....click, click, click,...it climbed to the top. I could see ALL of San Antonio from here. (I wanted to puke) It spun us around one time and we did a small dip backwards. None of knew it was going to do this. Luke, our little thrill seeker, all of a sudden changed his mind that this was too scary for him. This caught Casey and I off guard. He began to cry and trying every way to get off. Mind you we are still WAY up in the sky about to speed down at 70mph into water. Landry, the NON thrill seeker, was laughing and loving it. It spun us around one time....Casey and I trying to calm Luke down........here we go! Splash....soaking wet. I wipe the water from my eyes and look at Luke to see this big happy/shocked look on his face. It was that moment on we no longer have a thrill seeker in the family....whew! (unless Landry liked it a little too much...oh no!)
Overall, it really was fun! Even Luke has said that.
The boys making a plan on which direction to go first. I thought this was too cute. The boys had to check out the map first while the girls just wanted to go. If we got lost we could just ask for directions right? Oh no! Boys don't do that. ha!
Lauren and Landry having fun

SeaWorld even had a water park to play in.
We enjoyed the shows. Uncle Max was so funny.
Luke opted for less scary rides. He was having so much fun.
Shamu! The star of SeaWorld.
It was worth going just to see this beautiful whale.
We are already making plans to go back.

Thank you for your sweet comments!
We always go to Sea World whenever we go to Florida (which is not that often). It's always fun and love the shows! Looks like you all had fun, loved the pix.
I know at Disney World you can "switch off." That means one adult rides the ride and the other adult remains with whatever kid can't go. Then the other adult gets to go on the ride. That way you only wait in line once.
I get motion sickness so avoid most rides.
