1) People will sit in the seats clearly marked "soak zone", listen to 3 announcements about how wet they will get in the "soak zone", get soaked, and then run for higher ground completely shocked they got wet.
2) None of my family will sit in the "soak zone" with me. This is probably for the best because no one should have to learn Victoria's Secret from me.

| Khaki is apparently no better than white pants when wet. |
3) Most Sea Stars have 5 arms, but if you have a mildly obsessive compulsive boy who wants to spend hours at the tide pool, you're bound to find an exception.
4) Some pools have strange rules.

5) After spending our money and time at Sea World we learned that our kids' favorite thing is the beach, for free.
I'm linked up with the TGIF Blog Hop hosted by You Know It Happens At Your House Too, Funny Postpartum Lady, and Overworked Supermom. Come join the fun!
If you learned anything this summer (not necessarily from me), please click below.
This is great! The pics are priceless. The spreading of diseases in the pool...not so much. ;)
ReplyDeleteThat sign reminds me of Marlin getting directions from Squirt "I feel like he's trying to tell me something." We are still shaking our heads about that rule.
DeleteHaha, love this line: "This is probably for the best because no one should have to learn Victoria's Secret from me."
ReplyDeleteMy husband made fun of a lady who got her white pants wet then he had to walk around the rest of the day with a wet wife. That'll teach him. Or me. There's a lesson in there somewhere, I'm sure.
DeleteThat rule you highlighted is way I always go swimming with a hazmat suit on.
ReplyDeleteI knew I forgot to pack something for our trip! *smacking forehead*
DeleteI, myself, have learned before that khaki is no better than white! Who woulda thought?? :D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you all had fun!
Thanks! We did have a good time, in spite of them being trapped with a slightly indecent mom.
DeleteI have yet to go to Sea World - glad you had fun!

Sea World is a lot of fun. I would put it on your list of things to do.
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
The Tater would rather be at the beach than just about anywhere...other than home. IF she HAS to go somewhere and leave her precious home, it's the beach. Every time. Looks like we'd learn, huh?
ReplyDeleteFollowing you from the Blog Hop ~ have a fabulous Weekend!
My kids think vacation is about swimming in a new pool (at the hotel). The would have spent the entire trip in the pool if we had let them. I guess that's kids, isn't it?
DeleteWe had the same experience, we found that after going to the zoo an open field was more fun, less stress and free!. Great blog
ReplyDeleteAt some point I will learn to not try to give my child any experiences that don't involve running free like the wild little people they are.
DeleteLove the sign, and the thought of all those unwashed disease-ridden folks. ;)
ReplyDeleteI actually thought of you when I snapped that picture. Your blog about the horribly written advertisements inspired me.
DeleteHah! Too funny. New follower!
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping in!
DeleteAhhhh...The splash zones and communicable diseases. It just doesn't get better than that!!! Thanks for linking up again this week! Love it!
ReplyDeleteWho knew pools were so gross? Oh wait, we all knew that. It's just not much fun when it's pointed out in the pool rules.
DeleteThanks for following! Stopping over to follow back :) I love the post!
