Weeki Wacky

Going on vacation down to Spring Hill, Florida, decided to take in some attractions, and with Weeki "Wacky" practically right up the road, drove there to do some investigating, hearing that they have live mermaids is something I've never seen, so took it upon myself to check it out, because they say seeing is believing, got there just in time to take in the next mermaid show, and as I counted them swimming around they turned out to be four, three of them looking like a young Ariel, the fourth one I did a double take because she looked so familiar, she looked older and had flaming red hair just like the others, but her costume was like the color hot pink and much more gaudier, finally getting closer to the mermaid tank I realized who it was and started to giggle, because believe it or not, and I guess she never retired her mermaid costume, it was none other than Bette Midler!

What? Bette Midler? Are you kidding??? lol Anyway, yes, I went there too years ago when one of my sons was little and I'll never forget it. Amazing to me that they could hold their breath that long.
