Meeting Funghie the Dolphin at Dingle Bay/ Western Ireland in summer 2007. Coming from Germany, I have met this special dolphin for the first time in summer 2000. Being still enthousiastic about this experience, I returned last year with adventure coach Patricia Burkard ("EOS", Germany) and her and my children. Especially 10 years old Sarah, suffering from diabetes, was eager to meet the dolphin.
We were short in time, since we had a film project running at the same time (see clip "Soehne und Toechter der Erde" - "sons and doughters of the earth"), and first we couldn't manage to have an intense experience with Funghie. But then a triple miracle happened: We met a man, Aiden Dunlea, who is familiar with Funghie and took Sarah in his "Laser" onto the water. That day was an extraordinary one, the best day in 2007, people said (Don't forget: it was in Ireland!). And then imagine! Not only Funghie showed up, coming close to the boat, smooth and friendly playing around, but also a whole crowd of dolphins - maybe 10-12 of them - came in, majestetically drawing a big circle in Dingle Bay and leaving half an hour later. Aiden said, he hadn't seen some for two years - and he is out there almost everey day.
I had the same experience in 2000, when I played the harp and the flute out on that special spot of land which you can see in the video ...
This version features the wonderful music by Caitlin + Sika "Ancient Land" (www.caitlinsika.com).
Thank you, Caitlin and Sika!
Thanks for watching and spreading the video and thanks for joining and contributing to the growing project "Der Wagen" (the waggon), which means: Leben wagen! Dare to live!
Off we go to the shores of "Otherland", which is only a glimpse away from our believed-in "reality"! One people. One world. One universe. One reality. Miracles are just the natural way of god's beloved children on earth ...
Oh Caitlin I LOVE your music. It touches my very heart and soul. I wish there were more people in the world like you and Sika. Keep the beauty coming and God bless you and your little family.

I agree about this being a moving song with images to match. Dingle Harbour, the Martin mountain and a gentle sea. Fungie had more visitors this year as I was told on a trip I took a few days after and met Fungie in the sun. I wish you Klaus and your family well. This captures the spirit for and I hope it can been drawn into each viewers soul, eventually.
