Dolphins!

I took the dolphin/whale cruise today.   It was spectacular.  We had perfect weather for looking for the critters--clear and not much wind--and though we saw no whales we saw a LOT of dolphins, both the common dolphin (which I'd never seen before) and the bottlenose (which I had.)    Also saw gannets in a feeding tower display that's something else! 

Anyway.   The little camera I have along isn't ideal for taking pictures of dolphins from a moving boat, but I did get a few to prove our good luck.
