The Sea Lion "Risky Rescue" was from 1:00 - 1:25 and so we had to race to get to Shamu in time for 1:30. Most people arrived there with plenty of time to spare. So when we arrived most were already eating. We dashed past this little booth and one of the workers asked us for our ticket. I explained we had already given it at the counter. I showed him our V.I.P. passes and continued on.
We were thankful to get the last table at the front. It was a great poolside view.
The trainer was talking and telling all kinds of information. We dropped our stuff and then walked inside to get food from the buffet. You should have seen this buffet!!! As we were waiting in line I saw this table in the row behind the front row and I thought, "Poor people. I wouldn't want that row!" A moment later another guy arrived and very courteously asked us for the ticket. I explained I had already given it, but I thought the number on it was 43. He then told me that 43 was *that* table (the one behind the front row) and the other one in the front row was already taken, but the people had not yet arrived. We accepted our fate and moved forward to get our food.
We sat down to enjoy the commentary and see Shamu's antics and eat our delicous food!We were thankful to get the last table at the front. It was a great poolside view.

Shortly thereafter one of those men arrived again and I thought, "What now??" He very graciously apologized for the mixup and told me he had reimbursed me for one adult and one child!!! Well, if you remember this meal was way more than I had been anticipating paying!!
Not only that, the boys' school program was paying for Dane, Cassidy, and Austin. I had to pay privately for Cooper and myself. Well, he had reimbursed me for Cooper and myself!!! So we ended up with this wonderful experience without even being out of pocket! I have to tell you this whole holiday has been 'blessed' in all aspects from the start!!!!
