Swimming with the Dolphins...

The first week we were in Florida we spent at Grandma's house, the second week we spent in Orlando. We found this really wonderful package deal with Discovery Cove. Discovery Cove is an absolutely beautiful, all inclusive resort where the highlight of the day includes the opportunity to get in the water and actually swim with dolphins. Included in our package was unlimited 2 week entrance to Busch Gardens, Sea World and Aquatica (a huge water park). We had so much fun we really didn't take any pictures but we enjoyed Busch Gardens two separate days, Sea World 2 days, and Aquatica one day. If we didn't have to leave when we did we would've had a week more to continue going!!

Discovery Cove was awesome...







Obviously the HIGHLIGHT of the trip (other than visting grandma, of course) was swimming with the dolphins...











It was such an incredible, wonderful, amazing experience. The dolphins are SO SMART. The one that Ashlynne and I were able to get in the water with was named Rose and she had her little baby Axle with her. (Axle and Rose...Axle Rose...LOL!!) It was so neat to see a mommy and baby and a very rare treat to be in the water with them. I wish I could go back to Discovery Cove every summer.
