Five Hundred Dolphins Dancing The Waves

They were line dancing vertical

I always loved dolphins doing dancing in the water when we went to Sea world. You could hear them talking to each other as if the leader was advising them what steps to do.

A film maker captured them and they were actually doing the line dance. We used to watch them when we went to Sea World when we went to Hawaii and Florida.

They looked like they were tired after about 30 minutes of work.

Beautiful creatures and they looked up at you as if they knew they were performing and they were rewarded with a delicacy of small fish. Sad that the small fish had to be eaten that way.

Dad bought me a small book when he went grocery shopping and it was at the bottom of the large brown bag. As he pulled each item out and laid it on the kitchen table, here he said "shana meaning beautiful, here is a sweet book, maybe you will love it." All about penguins.

I did love it and when we were cleaning out shelves and other things when we were moving, there it was all old and a little yellow, not a mark on it and I had cared for it for about 50 years. It had its price on the front cover 50 cents which was a lot of money in those years of about 75 years ago.

Now days, there are Ipods, Laptops, tablets and 80 inch televisions. Our first one when I was 15 was about 19 inch.

Life has changed but not with any changes that I could love as much as my penguin small book.
