PIctures from the day of "Swimming with the Dolphins" (November 5, 2012)


The Dophin Research Center Logo
Marathon Florida


Rebecca was Cathy's mentor and stayed by her side the entire time.
Here she is  getting some instructions before getting in the water.


The dolphins getting rewarded after performing 
a task they were signalled to do.


Rebecca sees that Cathy gets ready to get into the water.
That is a chair lift to lower her into the water.


Cathy swims over to the dock where the dolphins were (They came over to see who this was in the water.)


JIm shakes flippers with Flagler


And...he gets a kiss besides.
This is all done by hand signals and whistles.


Cathy gives a signal to have it do a leap.


Of course a kiss!


This is a group signal (circle left) to make them 
swim like a shark ( wiggle their tail fins)
and they were good

We have a video of both Cathy and Jim 
being pulled by the dolphins to be 
shown later. No single shots .
