Dominican Republic camera critters are kinda cute

I was delighted to swim with dolphins in the Dominican Republic in 2004. We've since found out how many dolphins are killed at places like this (not necessarily this one) if judged unsuitable for training, and we've decided not to participate in dolphin swims except in the open ocean when dolphins are there voluntarily. 

Rays are so cute when seen close up at Ocean World in the Dominican Republic.
No, I didn't swim with them.                                             Photos by Richard Schear

One of the keepers plays with the nurse sharks at Ocean World.
He did not invite any of the tourists to play with them, and none of us asked to try.

This cricket visited us in our room. Dick gently escorted him out.
