On the crossing from the Marquesas Islands to the
Tuamotu Islands we found it hard to believe that we saw little
wildlife other than a few birds. During the second night I saw
phosphorescence in the water, I really hoped it was Dolphins coming to play,
even though it was dark, but the long streams of beautiful, sparkling green
lights were too elusive to be sure, certainly not significant
enough to wake Steve.
I have recently read and thoroughly enjoyed a
book by Terry Darlington and was delighted to
read about when Dolphins first visited their boat.......
......they will say "Can we join you
for a moment in your own world, right here and now because it would suit us to
do so?"
.....there they are in the
sunlight, the water shining on them, your own special
creatures from another world come to have a laugh, just with you.....it was the
most wonderful moment.
He has captured the experience so
beautifully.
