Yep, Thursday we spend the morning at the beach and then some time at the pool doing a whole bunch of nothing!
After lunch and a shower we took a short drive down to Orange Beach to take a Dolphin Cruise. We meet some people in the pool the day before who told us about it and how cool it was, so we call and made reservations.
There was two boats that look exactly the same. I took this picture from the boat we were on of the other boat.
They would drive around and look for dolphins and then when they would see some the other boat would come over and then they would drive real close to each other and make a huge wake and the dolphins would "get a free ride" and jump away. Right as we were pulling out of the marina we got to see two dolphins. They stayed with us for about 5 minutes. Then we went out into the bay a bit and we saw another group and this one was a mother and her baby! The guide said the baby was only a few weeks old.
The last group we saw had somewhere between 6-8 dolphins. It was awesome. I took some video but have not figured out exactly how to link it up so hopefully I will. This group stayed with us for a good 8-10 minutes just taking turns jumping.
We got our only family picture on the boat too!
After that we grabbed some dinner on the way back in and got changed to do a little crab hunting!
Daddy and Taylor looking for crabs (those guys are super fast!)
Sand Crab!
There was tons of them washing up on the shore and crawling around in the sand.
