Seaworld. Seaworld. One of the main reasons why I went to the US.
To see killer whales, duh.
So as you can expect, I took copious pictures of killer whales, which I will hereby unload on all of you, whether you like it or not.
First, the random sea critters I don’t fancy too much:
Manta rays.
Dolphin Lagoon.
Dolphins.
Manatee. Grazing on lettuce. I never knew these guys were vegetarians. No wonder they are called sea cows.
Sharks.
Now the serious stuff:
Shamu Theatre. See, all adult killer whales are called Shamu in all the Seaworlds in USA. The Orlando Seaworld is the biggest Seaworld in the US.
Sneaking a peak!
Aww.
And they jump.
:D
Giant!
And Shamu soaks everyone.
Shamu. There’s a sad story behind why his dorsal fin is bent. I shall not rehash it here. It spoils the magic of Seaworld. Leave it to the animal rights people to tell that story.
More heavy lifting.
And photo op for me.
And an orca says “Hi!”
Mother and child frolicking.
Looking at this picture (edited by me), I am feeling that moment Suhui was talking about on her blog. That moment that makes one stop and think life is perfect. I won’t mind spending the rest of my life with them.
Now that I have seen killer whales in real life, my life is complete. :)
they sure look magnificent… wouldn’t life be more complete if you could work with them orcas? :) though i don’t think the same can be said about my penchant for cows lol.
apa orcas? I only know okras.
haha
orca is young of shamu? (pardon my ignorance)
Your wishlist has been shortened. Good! (think to think of more)
beautiful :) and that orca with the bent fin reminds me of Free Willy!
Awww, I love the last picture too!!!
Glad that your life is complete now! =DDD
