Rob Moriarty's 'Swimming with Dolphins' It is amazing how friendly these prehistoric creatures can be... even though they have tiny brains and make weird noises they still are happy (the dolphins were enjoying themselves as well (refer to picture of my mother, not me... I know the two are easy to confuse)). And I snogged an oily, slimy thing that smells of fish... a very similar experience to Friday night's in Birmingham. I even managed to feed one with my foot, so if you ever wondered what that funny smell in the sixth form centre was, please, don't ask! Mum has since been boasting around that she has fallen in love with a 37 year old American who just so happens to be the small matter of 53 stone (750 lbs). On a serious note, this is one of the best experiences I have ever had and I would strongly recommend it to anyone who is interested, or just happens to have a holiday in Florida (if not, the holiday on it's own is pretty damn good). If you are interested in visiting for yourselves, then you have to pre-book over the internet well in advance, because they only let in 1,000 people per day. The address is www.discoverycove.com. I believe they also now have a dolphin trainer programme where you spend a day intensively with one dolphin, and it's not that much more expensive than the cost of the experience I had. If you want any more info, please ask. Enjoy the photo's. Comments more than welcome. Speedy. (Rob Moriarty) Back Photos and article contributed by Rob Moriarty
