Play with the Dolphins

Botos, or Amazon River Dolphins in a hotel play yard, Manaus, Brazil Manaus, Brazil ~ April 23, 2007

We found these botos, or pink Amazon River dolphins in the play yard of the Tropical Manaus Hotel in Manaus, Brazil. Although the pink coloration and long beak are typical of this dolphin, the real animals have a shorter dorsal fin, more like a hump. The play yard had other native animals in it, and I believe they were made by the talented woman who ran one of the gift shops at the hotel.

Lucky Day

Girl with Dolphin, Miami Seaquarium White Pelican and Dolphin
Key Biscayne, Florida ~ January 14, 2008

This little girl was visibly ecstatic when she was chosen out of the crowd by the dolphin trainer for a personal encounter with this intelligent animal. I think all of us in the audience tried to live the experience through her hands and senses. What fond memories she will have, as she clearly loved being with the dolphin.
