Day 6: Discovery Cove
This was the park that we booked in advance that allowed us to go to Busch Gardens all week. We almost didn't do it, because Max isn't exactly known for his love of the water and it was a lot of snorkeling (something he has never done) and ALL day water. But we decided to take the risk and it was ALL worth it. Max LOVED snorkeling and the fact that he could not only see and breath under water, but that eh could "swim" (float) all by himself with a life vest. His excitement was worth every penny spent on this vacation!
Here's Max in the cave of the winding river.
Amy loved floating along as well. She was a little more awkward since she would mostly just fall forward, but she loved floating along on her back!

Under the waterfall!

The park included all of our meals and snacks. Here is Max showing his excitement.
After getting there, and getting all the sunscreen on we were finally ready to go see some fish! We saw all sorts of parrot fish, ginormous rays, polka dot fish and many more.
They had a separate pool where you could swim "cow nose rays". They would swim right next to you and you could feel their slippery skin.

They also had an aviary where we could feed many different types of birds and they would land right on you. Max and Amy loved trying to get the birds to eat from their little containers!
We had so much fun and it was such an amazing day! They also had a part of the park where you could swim with the dolphins, but Max and Amy were not old enough, and honestly we filled the entire day without missing it! Only one day left, we are thinking of checking out the Atlantic Coast tomorrow and then we fly home Sunday night! It has all gone by too fast, but time flies when you are having fun!

Love it! Looks like you had a blast this past week! And Max is such a little dare devil. There is NO way Colton would ever agree to go on a roller coaster right now. Give him a few more years. ;) We're excited to see you guys next month!
Wow, what an amazing vacation!! Looks like you have done some amazing things. I'm glad you are
Enjoying your much needed break. And fun that you got to see the cute Apples.
