Sea World

Whats the best plan for a day @ Sea World? I heard the parking lot opens pretty early, then also heard you can do a few things befor the ';park'; opens. Also I have etickets but have to go to customer service to get my %26#39;hard'; tickets (year pass)can that be done befor the ';park opens';? Any fst food resturants outside of the park to grab a light breakfast. Want to make the best of our time, any suggestions/ What about taking food in, lockers %26amp; such? Good idea or a waste of time?

Food is not allowed to be brought in. A few little snack and some water can be talked in. You could always leave food in the car and go back out to it. There%26#39;s a McDonald%26#39;s right near the entrance.

Great thanks for the tips! What about the waterpark area, what to do with purses %26amp; wallets, do they have lockers? Whats the best plan so things don%26#39;t get stollen.I saw night time shows %26amp; fireworks, but the calender says park closes @ 6:00 pm the second week in June, its not dark yet! Is dining w/Shamu fun or do you see enough animals kids 6 %26amp; 4?

It might not be officially allowed, but with two kids, we%26#39;ve always brought in snacks and water, and never had any problems. The staff WILL watch out for straws, plastic lids, and other things normally considered hazardous for the animals.

There are several restaurants around SeaWorld before you get there to stop %26amp; grab a bite. If you all plan on going on the rides at the same time than I would definitely get a locker to protect valuables. Since you are going early I would get a locker near the entrance %26amp; exit part of the Park due to when leaving it would be easier to get your things from the locker. You may also want to go to SeaWorld website under questions %26amp; Answer part for lots of good advise %26amp; a lot of answer to questions you may be thinking about. I%26#39;ve gone there several times %26amp; found many answers to my questions %26amp; family questions. www.seaworld.com/SanAntonio

BTW on the SeaWorld website click on F.A.Q. there is a answer for food %26amp; drinks.

Also I think the dining with Shamu is a great things for the kids, my niece %26amp; nephew were so fascinated about it %26amp; still talk about it %26amp; they were close to the age of your kids 2 yrs ago. The lunch is actually pretty good %26amp; the joy that you see on your kids face is memorable.

Thanks for all your great tips. What about night time shows I heard they had them but the web says they close at 6:00. Ps we are doing the dine w/shamu looks like alot of fun.
