As a kid I loved to watch reruns of the show Flipper and envied all the exciting adventures he had with his friend, Bud. I can vividly remember Bud holding on to Flipper's tail, riding along without a care ... until he inevitably encountered some sort of trouble. So when my husband and I decided we would take a trip to the Riviera Maya in Mexico I really looked forward to swimming with the dolphins.
Once we were there, I witnessed the narrow canal which jailed these amazing creatures. I watched as each of their jumps became higher so that their glimpses at the ocean nearby could be long. I listened to their sounds and heard cries for help. It's my belief they were begging to be set free. I could not bring myself to swim with those poor dolphins.
I loved this post, we too visited the amazing creatures when we were on our honeymoon in Cozumel... They can truely make you smile no matter what kind of day you may have
