Shamu Theater, one of seven ways to get WET at SeaWorld San Antonio Great ways to get wet at SeaWorld San Antonio...I certainly have my favorites, however I like to spend most of my time in the park trying to view the park through our guests eyes. This is sometimes difficult for me to do as I am very close to our product. That's why I frequently turn to my favorite four person focus group, my family. Every time they I ask my wife and my two teenage boys what they liked most liked the least and what they would change. While their input provides quite a bit of value to my job, I realize that even their opinions come with a certain amount of bias making it difficult to equate to an actual guests visit. This however is not true with my seven year old daughter Kady. The honesty and enthusiasm of a sassy little girl is pretty easy to trust. You know exactly what is wrong and why. You also get to know what is most important from the constant questions and "pester power" as it is affectionately referred to. Young children are creatures of habit, so when something is right it is easy to spot by their desire to do it over and over and over again. So without further ado, here are Kady Decker's top ways to get wet at SeaWorld San Antonio verbatim;
- Atlantis (Journey to Atlantis) is great because when you go down the hill you get splashed and when you get off the ride you get to get splashed again.
- I like the (Lazy) river because it gets you wet because you are swimming in it
- Shamu gets you wet, you take two hands and wave and you get splashed
- Dolphins splash water in the pool and sometimes get you wet, they make me laugh they are so cute
- And the Rio Loco (raft ride) waterfall gets everyone wet
- Swimming with the Sea Lions gets you wet, also when you watch the Sea Lion show the big tower explodes and sprays water all over everyone
- At the Viva Show the guy (the Waterworks Mechanic) splashes you and you get to watch the butterfly lady fly around
So whether you're a kid, have kids, have grand kids or simply resist the urge to ever grow up Kady's favorites should help keep you cool during the hot summer days.
What are your kids favorites?
I'd love to hear from you.
