Quick Drive-By Update from SeaWorld San Diego

This past weekend we were down in San Diego to see some family so we did a quick drive by of SeaWorld on both Saturday and Sunday. Also, will add, checking into a hotel for the first time since all of this started was super weird. So be prepared for that the first time you do so. 

We were hoping to actually be able to stop somewhere, park and take pictures, but that didn't seem possible without breaking a whole lot of rules. Still, some of these pics came out ok. Enjoy! 

​I see something!! 
Picture
Promise, it's back there somewhere. =) 
Picture
Emperor and Electric Eel! 
Picture
Picture
Journey to Atlantis looks SO much better with it's new colors!! 
Picture
On Sunday we took a different route to get to where we were going, was again hoping we could park somewhere to take pics. Didn't happy, but here's a different view! 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Can't wait until we have some parks reopening here in CA. Hope this tides you over until then! 
Picture
We hope you enjoyed this quick drive-by of the park. We hope we can bring you some fun from inside in the very near future.

Christmas Celebration 2018 at SeaWorld San Diego

Picture
Last weekend we headed down to San Diego to check out Christmas Celebration at SeaWorld.

​We hadn't been to SeaWorld since Ocean Explorer opened last year and were very excited to check out not only Christmas Celebration but all of the other new stuff at the park. 



Written by Gregg Condon
​The trip down had a dual meeting, as I was meeting my half sister for the first time ever. Not going to get into too many details here, but will say that we totally hit it off, and I rode a coaster with my sister (something I never thought I'd say). So yay!!! =) ​

​Welcome to SeaWorld!! 
Picture
Manta is easily one of the best coasters in CA. So deceiving to look at. So fun to ride. 
Picture
Picture
Flaming-O's!! 
Picture
Picture
We'll get back to you a bit later Clyde and Seamore
Picture
Unfortunately the times didn't work out for us to see this. Wish they'd just had continuous shows throughout the day. 
Picture
Let's check out how the Dolphins celebrate Christmas!! 
Picture
Picture
Hey there Electric Eel!!

Picture
This was my view for most of the show. 

Pro Tip: If you're going to lean forward and hold your phone up and block everybody behind you, at least hold your phone the right way.

SeaWorld San Diego Shamu Stadium Remodel and Electric Eel Construction

Picture
We are starting to get our first look at the remodeling of Shamu Stadium at SeaWorld San Diego as well as some very early construction photos of Electric Eel coming to the park in 2018. 
​
A HUGE thanks to Joe (@goofyrunning) for sending us these shots. 

Pictures taken January 24th, 2017
A look at the new stands that were added a few weeks ago (pictures below). This is the area where the Orca's would hang out backstage near the underwater viewing area. This is where you can come and watch them while the old stadium is being remodeled. 

No "show" here obviously, but the trainers talk about the amazing animals. 
Picture
Work going on in the stadium area 
Picture
There are two "Presentations" per day. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Let's move on and take a quick look at the area for Electric Eel 
Picture
An aerial view of the area. Going to be pretty close to the front of the park.

Pictures taken January 9th, 2017
