Our fourth excusion was to Sea World to see Shamu !

Lots of giggles with Clyde and Seymour. And of course, the 'otter' guy was pretty darn funny himself. No pics of him, bummer.

Hard to believe this cute little innocent looking shark, will grow up to be... yes, Mike, really...

THIS --> Not so innocent looking anymore.

Robbie and Barb had fun going on the 'Journey to Atlantis' ride... twice... until Mike soaked us with a water cannon. Pay backs, just you wait. :-)

Third stop.... DISNEYLAND !

Second stop on the Spring Break Tour: the San Diego Zoo !

Awww, too cute!

SPRING BREAK 2009 ... a trip to remember !

First stop: a 7 hour nature cruise on 'The Bright and Morning Star' (Rev: 22:16). We saw Los Coronados Islands off the northwestern coast of Mexico. On our way there, we saw a couple whales, 2 types of dolphins, harbor seals, sea lions and lots of exotic birds.

Various movie scenes have been filmed around these islands including "Pirates of the Carribean" and "Titanic."

Next post ... SPRING BREAK ...
SAN DIEGO, CA !

Tulle.... Mike did not go to the Cub Scout retreat as he stayed home like a good Dad and took care of Tulle. Earlier in February, she ate a pack of gum. Note to all dog lovers, the artifical sweetner to dogs is toxic. It's called Xytol. Long story short, on top of the gum issue, she then had an allergic reaction to the medication she was on and had a severe reaction. Here she is wearing her cone so she can't bite/scratch herself. It's over a month and her skin is still healing from all the blisters. You can see her front paws (both) have been shaved for her multiple IV's. It's been a very rough month for sure....

As I update the blog tonight, she is curled up next to me. Her spirit and spunt have certainly returned... and... her snoring. Oh my, how can such a small creature snore sooooo loudly! She is definitely our sweet, sneaky, snoring Schnauzer!
