Swimming with the Dolphins at Miami Seaquarium

One of the things that I did while visiting Miami was to spend some time swimming with the dolphins at Miami’s Seaquarium.
Well, it wasn’t really swimming, it was more of a shallow wading experience. But it was great fun, and one of those experiences that I heartily recommend.
I’ll have more of the details of the whole experience, but for now you can take a look at “Doe” and I.

How cool, Mary Jo!
I’ve seen dolphins up close, but I never got a chance to actually touch one.
It was VERY cool! They feel a little bit like foam rubber. I’d do it again, and next time opt for the deeper water swim.
We did the longer swim with them a couple years ago and LOVED it! We thought the “push” was the wildest thing. Our pics are here: http://picasaweb.google.com/feistync/MiamiDolphins
Great photos!
I’ll opt for the longer swim next time!
Great photo! I can’t wait to bring my daughter to swim with the dolphins! Thanks for sharing: )
She will love it! They have wetsuits in all sizes, so kids are most welcome.
That. Is. Adorable.
That photo of you kissing the dolphins is one my favorite. Now, that you have swam with the dolphins, you might want to try it in the Florida Keys next time. Its a different experience than Miami. All are really good but different.
God Bless,

Sounds like fun. I enjoyed the experience, and will definitely look for an opportunity to do it again.
