Thank you Samantha! I love watching the dolphins and we see them a lot over the Summer months. It was so much fun watching them from the pier this morning with all those animated grown ups. Everyone was smiling :o) Smiles and love to you xxx
You captured that feeling that dolphins bring out in us, that childlike wonder. I got to dive with dolphins once, what a treat! They have such kind eyes.
Thank you LuAnne and what a treat that you went to dive with them. They are such wonderful creatures and they sometimes come so close to the shore that you can touch them. It is as if they are coming over to say ‘hi’ and they make everybody smile. Thank you for stopping by and much love to you xxx
It was a blessing. My favorite part was doing underwater spins with one like dance partners. Thank you for reminding me of this long ago special time. I need to write about this! 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration and challenge! I am off on a four day road trip helping my daughter move to Denver (from MI) and will be out of touch but that might be good fodder for any writing I get to do along the way.
Oh, fabulous shot, Xenia! 🙂

Beautiful! I wish we had dolphins in our bay. Anything that encourages the inner child is to be welcomed.

When I’m out with Pearl and Millie, the wildlife tend to hide! But Pearl and Millie make me smile so that’s OK 🙂
