Dolphin Show review - 2015

 We arrived one hour  before the evening show .  We parked our car in the new underground parking  . There are three floors  -if I remember well . Even  though it took  us a while until we found a free place . There was some foul smell inside ... we wished to get out as soon as possible .
We found ourselves by the edge of a busy road - as we came up to ground level. The opposite side was the Dolphin Show .No pedestrian crossing or traffic warden to let the families cross safely !
It was easy to buy tickets  -we arrived at 6  for the show of 7pm. No crowds  .Prices were OK  - if you want a better view  then it costs you 100 rial - if you  are happy to see the show from the side then it is 50 rial .

The doors open half an hour before the show .There was a big crowd wanting to enter . We decided to walk around  and not to join the crowd . We arrived back ten minutes before the show with tickets but it was very difficult to find any seat at all .

The dolphins were jumping , spinning round in the air even before the show . Then came a Russian compere  with an annoying style and  strong accent . But the  synchronized Swimming girls  were really nice . Dolphins were given time to  rest  and there was this " water ballet " performance during the  breaks .


The dolphins were jumping through different objects  -were playing with balls - even painted an abstract image .  There were three female ones in a small pool .  

The  final
  attraction was a 600 kg  walrus  - it was waiving at us ,doing push-up ,sit-ups and even once somersaulted  . When it was wet it smelt like a dog ..:)
All in all it was a nice show  - the music was too loud ,kids were running here and there ... there was a fence between the pool and the seats .So many kids were hanging on this fence - people let their very small totes  go there alone ...Three or four years old little kids  climbing on a fence near the pool !
Two years ago  even there was no fence at all !
