Everyone really enjoyed the animal shows at Six Flags, even though Shouka was being uncooperative. Shouka and one of the dolphins (Merlin) were doing the show together, they decided they would rather be playing with each other than performing for a crowd of strangers. It is hard to see in the picture because it was taken from through the observation glass, but they were snuggling with each other and ignoring everyone.
The dolphins were hilarious, it is amazing how intelligent they are. The show was really good, after it was over we were all standing at the observation glass watching them being very playful. They were swimming around playing with toys and once in a while they would go to the top and splash a bit. We stood and watched them intently, taking pictures when suddenly one of them swam to the top and made a huge splash that drenched us. Then it rushed back to the bottom of the pool to survey the damage and laugh at us, we could actually see it's head bobbing as it watched us.

Jelly Belly Factory tour: Everyone really enjoyed this. It was interesting to see how Jelly Belly candies are made. The kids and Mr. Lopes spent a lot of time running back to the sample bar to get more samples...not sure who enjoyed the samples more the kids or Mr. Lopes. We also ate at the Jelly Belly Cafe, the hamburgers and pizza were shaped like jelly Bellys and the kids got a cute souvenir cup with their overpriced meal.
I'm glad you guys got to have a fun vacation and get out of the heat. The Tony Hawke ride looked fun ....I should have got on it:)
