The day after my mom left, D and I headed out for a week vacation in Florida to visit my dad and step-mom. We arrived during the evening, so the next day Grandpa took us to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. We learned about the rehabilitation of sea turtles, otters and saw a dolphin show. At the aquarium, we met an inspirational dolphin, Winter. She was rescued as a baby with her tail severely caught in crab pot lines. Over the course of the next few weeks, her tail died and was amputated. http://www.tampabay.com/specials/2008/reports/winter/ She's a pretty amazing dolphin, she's learned to adapt to swimming w/out her tail. Scientists have even created a prosthetic tail for her.
I've now determined that D is a water magnet (more about that coming soon). If water is going to be dumped on or splashed on someone, it's going to be him and he HATES getting splashed!! He was the ONLY person who got soaked during the dolphin show.
Stanley came with us and it was the last place that he was seen. I lost Flat Stanley!!
