MeduSirena Revisited

MeduSirena

MeduSirena is one of those cultural icons you just need to meet in person. I somehow missed this special treasure in my own backyard until about this time last year. If you want to catch a unique, watery show, the mermaids perform every Friday evening at 6:30. Just head over to the Wreck Bar at the Sheraton Hotel on A1A in Fort Lauderdale. I go early so I can get a seat at the bar near one of the pool side port holes.

My first visit to this show was about a year ago. I've been back several times since, usually with friends in tow. One of the first things I did after meeting the Mermaids was to "friend" MeduSirena Marina on Facebook. Her quirky sense of humor and several posts a day are a large part of my daily entertainment requirement. If you can't make it to a show, then I highly recommend checking out her postings.

One little fun fact that most people don't know - Right after the swim show, the mermaids have a little Meet, Greet, and sometimes Eat session with the fans. I went a couple of weeks ago and for the first time became part of the menu. You can tell by the smile I was having a terrible time.
