The month of May was an adventure from Day 1. Between family visiting, house sitting, and my internship I have stayed consistently busy.

Earlier this month my mom and grandmother came down to Daytona to visit and celebrate my birthday with me. We went out to the Tanger Outlets for some internship outfits and summer shoes. Let’s just say I got a whole new wardrobe for my internship, and boy am I glad all my tops were short sleeves. Along our adventures around Daytona I gave them a tour of Embry-Riddle’s beautiful campus. My grandmother had never been here before so she wanted to see everything.

During their time here we went mini-golfing, enjoyed the poolside and had some incredible food.

My internship at SeaWorld has been a blast. I’ve been learning so many things about environmental safety and how it all relates to the animals, guests, and local area. It has been extremely hot in Orlando the past few weeks. As you can see I am a ginger and the sun and I aren’t exactly friends. So my daily 6-7 hour walks and 15,000 steps around the parks have been accompanied by a lot of sunscreen, but every minute out in the park is worth it. Everyday I am learning something new.

One of my favorite experiences so far has been helping the guest find their way around and answering any questions they may have. Being able to put a smile on their faces and help them enjoy their day at the park makes me smile. The little kids always adore watching the animals especially the dolphins and orcas. We just recently got a few rescue dolphins in and they are the sweetest things ever and so playful.

Little SeaWorld fun fact for ya:

Jaws 3 was filmed at SeaWorld. Pretty cool right?

Everyday that I walk into work and leave I am greeting with some precious wild rabbits. They are adorable!

Now for some yummy treats. 🙂
