    Dinner with Shamu

    All you can eat buffet (very good food), all the desert you want (again very good) plus all you can drink. Since Anheiser Busch owns the park, you get quite a buzz. I tried out a bunch of the new aluminum bottle beers.
    Anyway, food, drinks, a private show, A/C , meet the trainers, and get up close and personal with the killer whales. Our table was next to the pool. This is in the back of the stadium on the opposite side of where they do the show.
    Pretty cool time and a nice way to spend about 2 hours.

    Absolutely beautiful pictures, and what a great experience. There's nothing like it.
    SeaWorld has some nice programs. When I was in high school Mom and Dad paid for me to swim with the beluga whales(BLIP). ^_^ They also have a program with the sea lions(SLIP), and now I think they've got an underwater one where you swim with the sharks. -Swoonage.- I think everyone should experience something like it.

    Re: Dinner with Shamu

    I did that every year for 5 years when I lived in San Diego. I miss it so much. I also was in SD for JJ the baby Grey Whale I was there the day they got her and was on the boat when they released her.

    I think SD SW might have a trainer for a day program with the killer whales but the last I heard the waiting list is 4 years long they also still might have the "Shamu 1 on 1 encounter. but that might have ended.
