SeaWorld's brand-new experience, TurtleTrek, will open next Spring, and work is proceeding at a seemingly fast pace. Let's take a look together at what has been done in the area in the past few weeks.

The first thing that we notice is that the nice Manatee topiaries have been removed from this area:

A lot of new wood is being installed:

And this is all for now. A new, complete SeaWorld update is coming early next week. Stay tuned!
