**This will be a long PTR sooo it'll be coming in pieces**

Hello!! Soo after attending the advanced career last year at Sea World SANNNNNNNNN Antonio i decided i would be going again next year. Sooo after booking my flights and all, I would be going Aug 2-7 at San Antonio again.

DAY 1:

Sooo the night before was Saturday so i decided to stay at Kings Island until after midnight and drink energy drinks all night, NOT A GOOD IDEA when i got 0 hours of sleep and felt sick. I arrived in San Antonio at about noon and was driven to the dorming at Sea World. After the campers arrived, we got to go to the games and rides area before pizza dinner. Here are some pictures of the rides:

DAY 2: Shamu and AAT

Soooo this day is always my favorite. Only day without wetsuits, but definately best experience. So we woke up at 6 AM to get ready to head out. We started out at Shamu stadium and met up with all the Killer Whales. We then played with EED's (enviornmental enrichment device) as well as feeding them vites. We checked the entire pool for security reasons.

After that we went to breakfast and then planned to go to AAT. ITs the animal ambassador program and they travel all around the country with their animals as well as going on television shows.

These lemurs were soooo adorable :D

DAY 3:

Earliest wake up day, Animal Care. Waking up at 5 AM is the best!!! We wake up to prepare food for the entire park except for the show animals. Then we get to go to Dolphin Cove to feed the dolphins up there as well as play with them. And that was the difficult part, we had to get the toys out after sooooo it took a lot of patience because they didnt want to end playtime.

We then went to breakfast as well as feed the Pinnipeds (Seals and Sea Lions) Then we went to the back and got to see some other dolphins.

This dolphin just threw water in the air and then caught it
