Shimu and Dolphin Encounter at Seaworld Theme Park San Diego, California

We went to SeaWorld via the boat at my Hyatt resort. It is a must do day out if you are visiting San Diego, its fun for all ages. We went last week, lots of children were still on their summer vacation, and the theme park was busy however we did not have to wait for more than 30 minutes for any rides. We got on Manta 2 times in about 30 minutes. All the shows were absolutely fun and nice to watch.

We took our kids to SeaWorld, after one show, presenting Shamu, we tend to realized that we should concentrate on other attractions. It's too laborious to expect to a little child to stay and sit for an hour for about 5 minutes of splashing and a trifle of a heavy-handed, environmentalist platform.

One of the great for family is the Sesame Street Bay of Play. We spent few hours climbing on nets and passing through tubes, and enjoyed the roller coasters sized for our kids. He was delighted! Don't forget grab water, because they have precious few drinking fountains, and charge a too much for bottled water.

We also had fun to the tower ride which makes you see around the whole park and the chocolate funnel cake at Pineapple Pete's, which was looked yummy! I will do this again when I come back in San Diego in the future.

Expect for long lines. I suggest if you can afford it, grab a front of the line pass especially if you are with small kids and elderly. This is also to save time and spend it on the park.

Sea World is fun; we especially liked the Turtle show and the ride that makes you see the overview of the area. We really had a great time. We took 2 days to do everything. The place is clean and easy to navigate. The shows were very good and delighted my kids.

Totem Poles and Laughing Statues at Vancouver British Columbia


Vancouver has beaches. Lots of beaches. Many guys from distant tend to account Canada as a year annular arctic hell. That’s not the case, basically for Vancouver. The so alleged “California of the north” is abounding with acquisitive humans appetite to yield in as abundant Vitamin D as they possibly can during the balmy brilliant months. In adjustment to advice a acquaintance plan her accessible cruise to the west coast, I ample I should allotment my favourite beaches in Vancouver.

Stanley Park is home to a advanced array of monuments but there are none added visited than the totem poles displayed at Brockton Point. In fact, the totem poles are the most visited scene in Stanley Park in all of the century.

You will see the totem poles at Brockton Point, in the eastern bend of Stanley Park. Drivers will acquisition pay parking forth Stanley Park Drive, directly in foreground of the totems; walkers and bikers can go the totem in just 10 - 15 account from city Vancouver.

Imagine my abruptness last anniversary when we visited English Bay down in the West End of Vancouver and noticed these statues. We didn't apperceive annihilation about them but noticed the Christmas hats so we chock-full to airing about the bank and savour a hot dog from one of those abounding carts in the area.

There were some people about as well searching at these statues and artful their poses. Morton park is adjoining to the main beach breadth as you will apprehension from the background. The land were absolutely muddy and glace so you had to be careful of your footsteps unless you were wearing those appropriate non-slip blush crocs. I anticipate this place of the city-limits is the alone place were you will encounter Palm Trees. It looks tropical but you will have to get your winter clothing this time of year, or you will freeze.

Reviews and Photos of Disneyland California Adventure

Disneyland California is a place established to offer fun to the whole family, with many rides great enough that the whole family can enjoy and only a few roller coasters that could be called tame by modern standards. Disneyland is great place for a family vacation trip.

Disney has high prices on food and drink, but I observed many are eating food they'd brought in from outside the theme park. I enjoyed Disney's asian picnic lunch at the Sonoma Terrace, and I can consider of the best meals during our trip: cold salmon on a bed of fresh leafy greens and chopped cabbage with carrots in a vinegary but light dressing. This was topped off with a light orange custardy dessert and a a good drink.

We were really amazed with the new Car's area in the park. It just newly opened so there were quite lines at different rides. The longest wait was about 45 minute. Maters bumper car ride was a hit with our kids. They made the whole location look just like the movie town of Radiator Springs. The whole family had a great time.

The California Screaming roller coaster was so great but other than that, not a lot to do for adults. You have to get reservations early for the World of Color show at night.

Experience at Universal Studios Hollywood theme park in Los Angeles California

Last June 15, 2012, We decided to have a family vacation for a great tour in universal studios hollywood theme park in los angeles califonia. Getting in the park was so easy and properly signed posted. Getting the ticket is so easy and quick. $159 each for one day only so you need to stand for hours in queues.  This is the highlight of our trip. We arrived to early to enjoy theme park and it was so empty that time. No long lines. We tried the simpsons ride and it was great. We went on the tour and the tour was awesome. It was really fun and exciting. We also tried the Terminator, the effects were perfect.

Transformers was the best ride in the park, had almost 60 minutes wait time and the passes allowed us to walk past everybody. The kids loved transformers and jurrasic park but less impressed with the mummy.

Things we really enojoyed are the jurassic park water ride, water world show, kingkong battle on the studio, the shrek and terminator 3D.

It had a lot of 3D shows. long wait for some rides so I suggest to come early to maximized the day. The bus tour was also great and a lot more functional that Disneyland.

The kids liked the Simpsons ride which I have to say left me cold. This was disorganised and wait times, even with the passes were around twice the advertised.

The Shrek 4D was a great laugh and probably about one of best show.

Make sure you purchase the fast pass options- not cheap but better than spending 90 minutes queuing.

Best time to go;

The perfect time to go would be February when the weather is not hot or humid, and there are no many people camping. Though we like the good vibe during the Summer months of March to May, the campsite is just too crowded.

What To do:
1. Bonfire
2.Climbing
3. Trekking
4. skim boarding
5. Frisbee

Note:
Inform your boatman in advance with clear details with him since there is no cellphone signal coverage in Anawangin.
