Swimming with the Dolphins

This afternoon we headed off to Adaland Dolphin Park for the express purpose of Lily and myself swimming with the dolphins. JJ decided to join us as we paid for our tickets.

After watching a wonderful dolphin show, we sat around waiting for an hour and a half  for our appointed time for swimming of 4.15.


After donning safety vests, and having the procedures explained to us, we were sat on the edge of the stage. and one by one, had our turns at riding the dolphins, greeting the dolphins, kissing the dolphins, and much touching as they swam past us.

JJ just wanted to feed and touch a dolphin, so he was able to be accommodated for this..

JJ was thrilled to be able to feed the dolphins, apparently only the trainers are allowed to do this.

A wonderful experience, a once in a life time chance to be in the water with these magnificent, powerful animals, thoroughly enjoyed by us all, even the spectators with their cameras.
