Thank you for reading the original Captain's Blog.

It was a wonderful Sunday with a wonderful family on the boat today!

Within minutes we were all so comfortable; like old friends and that made it a very magical day indeed!

David, Danny and Shelly were huge animal lovers and we were able to spend over an hour swimming with the manatees.  They really got close to David at one point it looked as if they wanted him to touch them but he didn't get quite that close. 

And the dolphins were so happy to see us today, they  leaped and twirled to Bob Marley and for at least half an hour (twice).  I truly believe the dolphins can sense and reciprocate the enthusiasm in the boat.  Often the dolphins splash water into the boat and I have a feeling that this family may be cleaning some salt water off their camera lenses this eveing!!!

The kids all agreed that mom made a good choice today!!!

It was hard to get Shelly to look away from those happy happy dolphins
