Day #3 - Discovery Cove

Today, I got a glimpse into what heaven looks like. Wow, Discovery Cove was beautiful. That is putting it mildly. We had an all inclusive day with a 30 minute dolphin swim. Dolphins are such amazing animals and to be so close to them, to touch them, to feed them was a phenomenal experience. Peanut got to do it with us, but Bubba wasn't old enough. :-( He probably would have gotten hypothermia from the water anyway.

We swam in beach lined pools (very odd, but very cool!) most of the day complete with snorkeling! The lagoon was filled with salt water and brightly colored fish AND sting rays. Honest to God sting rays! Swimming right with us! It was a little scary, but all in all it was just really cool.

Bubba stuck close to me and close to the shallow area. Peanut, on the other hand, was long gone most of the day with Trophy Hub. We had our choice of a wet suit or a vest that kept us warmer in the cooler water and had some floation to them. (All pics of me in a wet suit will be burned. Let's just say you could see where everyone's belly button was. Augh...) Bubba grew quite fond of his wet suit and looked pretty darn cute in it too. See...?
So, what's on tap for tomorrow? Relaxation? No way! Epcot!
