My "first kiss" died on Saturday.

My first dolphin kiss, that is.  And that's not counting the killer whale that kissed me when I was twelve.  She died a few years ago. 

No, I'm talking about Sharky the dolphin that I kissed at Discovery Cove in Orlando almost 4 years ago.  Apparently, she collided with another dolphin during an aerial stunt and died.  The other dolphin is being monitored but appears to be fine.  It's the first time they've had an accident like that.  Sad. :(

Here's me and Sharky during our special moment.

Kissing Sharky

Mom, so you think it was me? Not all the hundreds of other people who have kissed (or been kissed by) them? Gee, thanks. lol
