Weeki Wachee Springs
The springs were smaller than I expected, but the shows were great. They did the Little Mermaid. It was very good, even had the monster come up from the deep and a great fight scene.
They also had another show that told how the mermaids are selected and what they have to do. One thing is to swim down 100 feet and then come back up on one breath of air.
Another hard thing is to learn how to stay still without floating up and down as they breath. This would be hard for me. I would be bobbing up and down all over.
Another mermaid drank a soda from the bottle underwater. See the turtle...it is in almost all our photos.
I loved the times the mermaids would grab each others tails and swim in circles. This photo shows another one swimming through the circle.
While there we went to the gift shop and I got a mermaid puzzle. I can't wait to start on it. I have some cleaning and rearranging of the living room first. Betty, Maggie May's mom, likes puzzles and may come over to help me. She is very smart and helps me with cross-word puzzles too. Mostly she and Mom drink coffee.
We did not swim in the spring. Vic doesn't like cold water and it is 76 degrees. The kids there were not letting the cold water keep them out, it was a hot day.
