Belmont Park

Welcome to the famous Belmont Park

The main draw of the park is the Big Dipper

The track is almost a Pepto-Bismol pink

It reminds me a lot of the classic Cyclone layout

The only thing that could be better is the trains

The park has a few other rides like the Revolution

Fast forward to the evening when we came back - here's Chaos

There's a carousel

Night rides on the Dipper were a lot of fun

This is a fun place to stop if you have the time


Sea World San Diego

Welcome to Sea World San Diego.  The front gate is kind of underwhelming.

Clyde and Seamore is currently presenting Sea Lions Live

The show parodies current TV shows

Slowpoke the Walrus makes an appearance at the end of the show

Time to poke some rays in the petting pool

OMG TURTLES!!11!1!!

The park has a pretty awesome rapids ride called Shipwreck Rapids

The middle of the park is dominated by Sesame Street Bay of Play

There are lots of spinny rides themed to characters

See lots of spinny rides

Seriously, there are a lot of spinny rides

Time for the Dolphin Show

They jump high

They have a rescued pet stunt show.  I got bored

PENGUINS

Wild Artic has a really bad simulator ride

But they have beluga whales there

and huge walruses, so it's not all bad

The main ride at the park is ATLANTIS

The ride has a rollercoaster section

You do get a little wet on the ride
Clydesdales

Sunsets on the skyride are fun

Dophins and Pyro are awesome

Shamu Rocks time

Who doesn't love rock music and killer whales?

They looked like they were having a good time
I know I had a good time at the park.
