Weekend Outing at Dubai Dolphinarium

Salam,

Last Friday we all went to Dubai Dolphinarium to see the much talk about dolphin show. It is conveniently located at Dubai Creek next to the Children Park and took us about 2 hours to reach there from Abu Dhabi (plus Abi's 'sesat' escapade with the Garmin right before Maktoum bridge...heh).

Our geng pengembaraan managed to get budget tickets to watch the morning show at Dhs 50/ person for adult and it's free for Luqman and Eiliyah, with Dhiya at half price. Mind you the normal price for the ticket is Dhs100 (120 for 'VIP' tickets..sheesh!) and this is indeed a bargain.

We were entertained by the ever so adorable dolphins and seals for 1 hour ++ and it was a very exciting show. Luqman enjoyed himself very much and he kept pointing at the dolphins and said 'dog..dog..' :) The dolphins are very clever and they can interact very well with their Russian instructor.. ermmm I wonder whether these dolphins can understand other language..

The performance started with the seals..
The seals are stealing the limelight with their singing........


Here they come..the dolphins!!
Wowww!! No other words can describe this.... Very entertaining performance, these dolphin can hula, jump through hoops...and sing!
All of them have names but I couldn't remember any...
Swishhh to the left, and Swooosh to the right....
Happy boys.. Luqman (and Abi) tersangatlah excited bila tengok dolphins melompat lompat

Family photo...we had a wonderful time. Highly recommended for a great family outing.
