Give them time to clean up the island a bit and the water to clear up some.

That's just weird .... I can see them swimming around the pool!

They do that. Largest pool on the island. Some dolphin facilities turn them loose in storms and hope they come back, which they usually do - but they are expensive so I guess these folks don't want to risk it.

And I always thought they must have drained the pool and pumped in salt water whenever they put them in there, but I was told that they put them in the normal pool water and they can survive for a long time.

I posted on facebook today that I am really proud of this island. We are all in preparation mode, everyone is working together, but no one is panicking - it's what we do here

Except for that ONE lady in Mega today... freaking out, all over her poor husband. I think at one point she tried to run him over with her cart.

like they are getting the pool ready for the dolphins at Hotel Coz.

Okay, pardon my ignorance, but what does this mean?

They take the show dolphins out of their tragic cages and place them in a hotel pool for safety. They should just let them go.

I remember some posts about the last time they were moved there, but not details. The freshwater is not good for them but they endure it for a few days. Three Orcas recently got lost in an Alaskan river and died after too much time away from the ocean. I'm sure they will be given the best care possible, then the giant pool drained and cleaned.

It's an all inclusive resort with a full buffet, the Dolphin will love the place. Just keep them away from the 'open bar'.

Best hopes sent to all of my Cozumel friends on the island!!!

Your Momma just didn't teach you right did she?
