When we were in SeaWorld, we met a worker who started up a conversation with us when I asked a question. He saw Alyssa's Give Kids The World button and told us to wait while he spoke with the person in charge, then he returned and got us into the very next opportunity to feed the dophins. Afterwards, he suggested that we try to go to the dolphin show at 2:00 and he would take his break and sit with us, but if we couldn't make it to the show we shouldn't worry about it. We got stuck at a late lunch and didn't make it over to the start of the show, but we eventually got sidetracked and the day got away from us. I had even forgotten about meeting this nice guy, until today. Today Alyssa got a package in the mail. This was inside:
In case you can't read the writing, it says:
Alissa and Family,
It was a pleasure meeting you at SeaWorld. I wanted to let you know that I went to the dolphin show. It was very crowded and I wasn't able to find you. I didn't want you to think that I did not go. :)
I wasn't sure which animal you liked the best, so I got you my favorite three. I hope you like them.
- Doe

The only return address is from Give Kids The World, who must have forwarded his package to us. I don't know how to contact Doe, but he made three kids smile big today, and reminded me that the good in this world is far more powerful than the bad. Thank you Doe, wherever you are!!!
