Good evening readers, we are starting off the month of June with a bang! Last weekend I had hinted at an adventure last weekend, and this time it was outside the house, the backyard even, which was a nice change of pace. Although physically, my body was hurting but the ticket to go was expiring this weekend, so it was either give it up or push against the pain. So, Seaworld I went, let’s brew about it!
Now, the comparison between Busch Gardens Tampa versus Seaworld Orlando, feels rather unfair, but hands down Seaworld is WAY better. The connivence of Busch Gardens is undeniable, however, Seaworld is not only larger but the attention to detail made you feel transported into another world. Not so much beach themed, but European in ways with the thatched buildings, wild gardens and quaint secret places. Of course there were aquatic nuances, take Journey To Atlantis, their gift shop, had a semi circle alcove with aquariums along the walls, ceilings, and even the floor! It was a nice respite from the heat.
The rides were exhilarating my favorite is the Journey To Atlantis and the Manta. My adrenaline junkie heart was having a blast, but there are smaller rides if that is something more your style. The animal meet and greet areas where phenomenal and up close! There was also, an option to feed them as well, whether sharks, seals, etc. There were a ton of sit down and eat places, and I love that there were water stations everywhere especially, since it was very hot and sunny, weather stated cloudy, but what can you do.
Honestly, it was a wonderful experience to be in another world for a day. The only complaint was that it was super packed, but it is the July Fourth weekend so it is to be expected. If you haven’t been, definitely make a trip up there. But if have you been to Seaworld in Orlando, what’s your favorite ride? Is there an attraction that you feel you MUST see when you go?
As Always Keep On Brewin!
