Thought you might like to see some of our pictures from my birthday treat when we did trainer for the day.
We had the usual dolphin swim but you also get two extra swims and we got to go out the back and see where they prepare all the food for the day (dont realise how hard these people work not just on the food but how clean they keep everything for the health of the animals)
Met an owl/sloth and an ant eater during the day and instead of feeding the birds they have a couple of sharks that are in early days of training to interact with guests that we got to touch which was great.
You can ask as many questions throughout the day which the staff are more than happy to answer and had an absolutely fantastic day although we were really tired out by the end but learnt so much from the experience.
