The ocean and what kinds of creatures inhabit it have always fascinated me, especially the marine mammals like the dolphins and whales. I had always wanted to ride and play with a whale or dolphin, but most of all, work in a place where I could train and study the marine mammals. Last summer one of my dreams came true.
