crystal clear waters at anyone’s finger tips‚ I loved being spoiled the whole time I was there. The main things that I enjoyed the most about my trip was spending time in the Olympic size pools getting waiting on all hours of the day‚ swimming with dolphins‚ and the XPOR tour. The resort I stayed at is called the Moon Palace. When I walked into the resort for the first time the first thing that I noticed was the attention to detail. The ceiling looked as if it was hand painted and the floors were

I have decided that that is the theme of the three stories. In the story "the pod" the narrator is describing a crippled boy helps a dolphin back into the water. The dolphin seems to understand him when he speaks to it. "Suddenly‚ as if it had understood‚ the young dolphin turned toward deeper water and began to swim toward the pod."

telling of the story of the annual dolphin slaughter in Taiji‚ Japan‚ on the island of Honshu‚ and the police surveillance of the filmmakers‚ the cameras disguised as rocks‚ the thermal imaging‚ infrared video‚ and sneaking around at night contribute to the power of the film. The process of filming the slaughter has a secret ops feel which is exciting but what is really engaging is the story of Ric O’Barry.

merciless slaughter of dolphins in Japan. I watched the film in absolute horror... Sometimes with my hand covering my eyes‚ and saw something horrible‚ something bloodier and more brutal than any fictional horror movie could ever do to my mind.
