Dolphin swim (bad weather)

Emma booked our swim with dolphins months back and now, the day is here. Yay. Unfortunately there's a 35 knot wind that could blow off the hair of a man's head. So swimming is recommended only for 'very experienced swimmers'. Right, well we didn't come across the Tasman sea to miss an opportunity like this, but still that sea looks pretty angry.
After a rollercoaster ride on the boat to get to the dolphins we find ourselves in the water, a soothing 12C warm. It feels like a million needles are viciously being jabbed in my head. But that doesn't matter: there they are: the dolphins. We swim and play with them. They swim circles around us as we dive down. They jump out of the water they are beautiful.
We even see 2 mums bringing their babies to show the babies some very slow moving creatures.
