The Mama Monster: turtle reef

Sunday we decided to take advantage of our passes and spend the day at Sea World... It's one of my favorite places in the world... Not because it's a wild life sanctuary to many animals that can't be re-released back in to the wild... not because it's a place to help people learn more about these fascinating creatures, not because I get to look at the giant smiles on my kids faces as they get to interact with animals that they usually wouldn't get to....

Are you ready for the real reason???? Are you??? You sure???? It's because I get to continue my love affair with Obie the giant male Walrus... So I have to believe it's true love... and this is why.... We walk up and people are upset because he's not at his normal front window... So I sit down at the empty window in hopes that he will eventually make his way over there. I am determined because this is a great photo spot. Not 2 minutes later.. Here comes my Obie. He must have known I was there. He starts doing laps in front of me and showing off. I got a couple of great shots of my whiskery man love!
