SeaWorld helps two families beat the heat with cool chairs

The Carpenter family, from Richmond, Va. and Green family from Durham, NC kick off the first day of summer on icy lounge chairs at Aquatica in Orlando.  Crafted from a solid block of ice and weighing more than 2,000 lbs each, the lounge chairs lasted for only a few hours in the Florida sun.  But for that period of time, they were the coolest chairs on the beach.  Aquatica is SeaWorld’s waterpark.
