On some level it makes me very sad, but on another level, how can you turn down an opportunity for your son to actually to hang out with a dolphin for a half hour. So this afternoon the boy did the "Dolphin Adventure" here at the Hilton Waikoloa Acid Trip. A hefty chunk of money (hey, charge it to the room...) gets him in a lagoon with four other people, a trainer, and a very tame dolphin. They seem pretty respectful of the animals at least, but it still bothers me to see wild animals jumping for their supper. Hmm, maybe another data point here too...
