dolphins!

We wrapped up our beach vacation with a dolphin cruise - one of the best parts of the whole trip! We went quite a ways out into Pensacola Bay and came across a very large pod of dolphins. We cruised around with them for quite awhile. At one point, we picked up a little speed and a couple of dolphins surfed in our wake. It was so amazing to be out there on the water with the dolphins.

I had no idea how my pictures and videos were turning out because I couldn't really see on my viewfinder due to the glare. And my camera isn't exactly quick on the trigger. So I had no idea what I got until we got home and downloaded everything. I'm so glad at least some of the shots turned out so we have evidence that WE SAW DOLPHINS!

Sunny ready to see some dolphins! (And pirates. All the sailboats we saw were pirate ships.)

All the kids on the boat were invited to "drive" the boat on our way back to the marina. Birdie's turn!

At least with digital cameras, you can shoot lots of pictures, hope for the best, and not worry about the cost of film.

Nice pictures, TK.
