Wonderful dolphin Tdelorenzi and great video and pictures. Pity the dolphin is not there any more but as they usually live in pods or schools of dophins it might have left looking for others. Those were some amazing jumps too! I imagined Elisabeth delighted all the people around several times. Greetings
