Animals, animals and more animals

Wednesday night and Thursday were my animal fix days. Being the perpetual animal hugger that I am, I couldn't wait to see the dinner show "Arabian Nights". We got in as VIPs so had a tour of the stables and were permitted to pet the horses before we sat for dinner. They had Percheron's, Andalusians and Arabians. Here's a photo of some of the horses playing in the arena after the show.

The story line surrounded a princess who had come of age. Her magical genie performed various feats for her in the search for a bridegroom. A gypsy caravan performed some daring bare back riding. A wild west show also performed and there was a villain who tried to steal the princess. The story comes from a man by the name of Farley and his black stallion.

Yesterday was spent at Sea World. Dolphins, Whales and Sea Lions galore. I took a myriad or pictures - 133 to be exact - but I'll only bore you with a few. If I could live my life all over again, I'd work with animals like these. As you can see I was able to get some great action shots.

The day was a long one so when we sat down in our car to head for Daytona Beach, we were exhausted. I thought vacations were for relaxing! So much to see and so little time.

Our hotel is fabulous - right on the ocean. The view from our fifth floor balcony is magnificent and we ponder the Lord's gift to us - a beautiful planet. Morning Devotions takes on a whole new meaning as I sit on the balcony and talk to Him about stuff. Here's a view from our room.

In the picture of our hotel, our room is the top right of the balconies facing you, just at the top of the palm tree. The hotel is the Best Western Aku Tiki.
