Dolphin Propelled - Friday Fotos

 

 

Dolphin Propelled

 

 

Feeding Dolphins

The first photo is the result of me experiencing dolphin propulsion for the very first time.  I had a dolphin pushing me from each foot.  There's a lot of adrenaline as you fly towards a concrete wall at high speeds with no control over the creatures.  And, all my attorney brain can think is, "They'd never do this in the U.S.  Too much liability." 

It was an experience I'll never forget.  It was like flying through the water.

Wow, really neat and I would love it!  Where were you that they do this?  I love animals and the dolphins are fascinating.

Christine - I did something very similar in Puerto Vallarta a few years back.  It was totally an amazing experience.  You're right though, they would never have that in the USA.

The U.S. has way to many ambulance chasers and will take any case that has a trickle of merit.  Obviously not all attorney's are this, but I am sure you could roll a number of them off in your local Bar Association that would fit this bill.

Looks like you had a blast.  It's so important to recharge while relaxing so you can refocus when you return home.

That top photo is classic!  I swam with dolphins once while in Cuba and loved the experience.  They are such wonderful and interesting creatures.  Thanks for sharing the photos.

I swam with the dolphins in Cabo, I think it was.  It is an amazing experience.  Didn't do what you did, just held on to the fin.  I can imagine how dangerous this could be.

I used to work with the dolphins in a couple of places in the keys - they never cease to amaze me with their intelligence.  I'm so glad you enjoyed them.

Pamela - It was.

Sue  - I was in Acapulco.

Todd- It beats every ride at Disneyland for sheer adrenaline. (There might be a few other friends I would want to keep "safe".)

Myrl - I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

Don  - We are unfortunately as very litigious society.

Anita -  It was an absolute blast.

Dorie -  I had no control, which is not a situation that is common for me.

Carol, Diane and Terrie -  It was a lot of fun, and the amount of adrenaline created is amazing.

Chris -Sheer terror crossed with exhilaration and delirious happiness.  It makes for quite a mix and captures exactly how I felt.

Karen - I hope you had as much fun as I did.

Jane - I'm sure it was dangerous, but boy was it a lot of fun!

Lanre- It would sure be a change to my head shot.

Steve - Everyone was having fun.

Juli - I envy you that experience.  I've been fascinated by dolphins since I was a little girl.
