swimming with dolphins


This morning Leda and I got up early to make our 9:45 appointment to swim with pink dolphins and we had the best time. They're so beautiful and sweet and lovely. Apparently they're a different species from the ones we see at Sea World and places like that: a bit smaller, and as they age, they turn pink! We started off by petting an older dolphin who was almost completely pink and then we got in the water, in groups of 5, with the younger dolphins and danced with them, took a ride on them, and even kissed them!

It was really beautiful and we had a great time. Pretty magical stuff. We're going for a hike this afternoon in this jungle area in Singapore where there are tons of monkeys around. Should be fun. Tomorrow and Tuesday I will entertain myself while Leda goes to work, possibly shop a bit on Orchard Road, hang by the pool, take some yoga (Leda scored me a weekly pass at her fancy yoga studio) and maybe check out Chinatown. Then Tuesday night we leave for Bali. Can't wait to be a beach bum.

Nice shot of you with the dolphin. Sounds like you're taking advantage of your location. Let me know how the jungle monkeys are, and whether you see Davy Jones. What are the prices there like - super cheap, I'm thinking.

Looking forward to seeing your henna!

So great! I've been reading your postings and finally managed to become a google blogger! Sarah on vacation is one of my favorite themes this summer. But hey, you do miss things here in the City which we totally enjoy. The only person missing is you, lady! Enjoy Bali and love to you and Leda!
Christian is looking at your pics right now and says hi as well!
