Loro Parque in Puerto de la Cruz in Tenerife is known as the ‘must’ for tourist things here. We are not here as tourists, but we had the opportunity to go to the park today. As you see in the photo, the dolphins are jumping. The dolphins and trainers did a great job. We enjoyed it so much that the Kronester family and myself went to the show twice. I have seen dolphins often as I have sailed on various ships, but it was great to see this presentation.

Loro Parque Orca
Today, 163 of the crew members of the Africa Mercy went to Puerto de la Cruz to the famous theme park, Loro Parque. This was provided as a gift from one of our international board members as a Christmas gift for the crew. At one show, we saw three orca whales perform (they were born at Sea World in the US).
