Tenerife and Loro Parque

Most of our vacations in Europe are all about places that we want to see, and there is not much to keep the kids happy except for ice cream and chasing pigeons. One of the stops on the cruise was the island of Tenerife. There were many options to choose from, but we decided to make it a fun day for the kids and go to Loro Parque.

Loro Parque is a combination Sea World/Zoo type place. We had about 5 hours there, which was perfect. We hit all the shows and made a quick trip through all of the exhibits. The birds and flowers were beautiful.

Shamu is alive and well in the Canary islands, although he has a different name. The killer whale show was really great. Those animals never cease to amaze and even Logan clapped for them.

Chelsea really wanted to sit in the splash zone, and so we told her that was fine, but we were not sitting down there with her. She marched down and sat in the front row. Cade stayed for a moment , but quickly returned to our seats. 

 

Chelsea didn’t really believe us that the splash zone really meant the “get drenched” zone. The look on her face is priceless. This was our first activity of the day, so she was quite wet for a while afterwards. She took it well and didn’t complain too much.
