Dolphins! Sea Lions!

Brett and I took the girls to a place called the Gulfarium in Destin. It's a "marine show park" where you see a dolphin show, a sea lion show, and a show with both! We also got to see sharks, sting rays, penguins and alligators. The girls loved watching the dolphins jump and splash. We weren't fast enough to get pictures of any of the big tricks, but we did get a shot of the dolphins at the trainer's platform.
This is 7 year old Lily and 4 year old Ariel - both Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphins. Lily's mother, Delilah, was also in the show with them - she's 35 years old! Lily's brother, Zach, is the largest Dolphin at the Gulfarium - he performed with Kyle, the sea lion, in the mixed species show! We had a great family day!
