New Shamu killer whale show One Ocean at Sea World this summer


Click to hear about the new killer whale show “One Ocean” at Sea World

For you Sea World of Orlando fans I have some news for you! Seems like this year, maybe around late spring, they will have an all new shamu killer whale show!

The new Sea World show will be called One Ocean, which will replace the 5 year old “Believe” killer whale show they have had. The pool and props around it will be very different and will be extensively re-done.

The reason for this, even if they don’t say it, is because of the death of Dawn Brancheau, who was battered and killed by a killer whale last year. In this new show, no Sea World trainers will be in the water with the killer whales.

Every type of M&M’s you could want!

When you first go into Islands of Adventure theme park at Universal Studios, you walk through a row of shops called the Port of Entry shops. They are on both the left and right side. If your big on candy, make sure you check out the Island market and export candy shoppe!
