Dolphin Day.

We have learned how to live 'spur of the moment' very well while on this journey. We leave a town with almost no notice, and decide where to go within hours or at most a day ahead, dinner and lunch are decided when we are hungry or as we pass a restaurant. So last night after dinner, I decided to book a Dolphin tour for the 4 of us. It made the boys very excited, and kind of helped them get to sleep faster. The best time of day to see any 'action' is early, so I booked an 8 am pick up hoping that wasn't too late. By 9 am we were finally off (this was the first time we've experienced Tico time, most everything else has been early for us regarding timing). The waves were fair, and the boys were enjoying the bumps, 'Hot Wheels, Beat That' they sang. Maybe 1 km out, things changed. I won't go into detail, but siffiacate to say, us 4 Lukie's do not travel well. The boys finally settled down a bit, but when they get sick I find myself getting very anxious, I hate it so much! Anyways, by the time we were far far out to sea, the boys were sleeping. And then their they were. DOLPHINS! 20, 30 probably more. Oscar opened his eyes and started yelling and jumping and smiling. But my poor little Callym just didn't want to get up. He wouldn't open his eyes, and just cuddled in more. It's hard to take pictures in a moving boat while you are holding on to a sleeping child, but we did our best.





We also saw a few turtles floating around. Very cool.



Oscar had so much fun, and it mostly made up for the fact that Callym missed the entire thing. The tour guide and the other couple (from Holland and on their Honey-Moon ) thought it would be fine to start back. I felt badly, we came to see Dolphins, but as the boys were still not too well we headed back. Almost to the shore, and Callym finally stirs...... ' Mom, where are the Dolphins'? Oh dear, I was just hoping that the pictures turned out so that he could at least see them that way. I've promised the boys ice-cream for lunch after what they went through, and I think we're going to hunt down some Gravol, just in case for any other moving around we end up doing.
