Weeki Wachee State Park

Many years ago we visited this park with our friends the Robinetts on our way to Key West.  Jo and I spent some time here today and watched the mermaid show plus other items of interest.  The river is very shallow but it is spring fed from the place where the mermaid show takes place.  They said that the depth of the spring is unknown as divers went down over 400' and still couldn't see bottom.

These mermaids spend a lot of time under water with only an air hose to suck on when needed.  The story for this show was "the little mermaid" where she meets her sailor man and wishes for legs.
