Kitty Mermaid visits Florida

We were excited at the arrival of Kitty Mermaid.  We were certain she'd feel right at home.  Shortly after she arrived we spent the weekend at Cocoa Beach.  She was delighted to see the Atlantic Ocean.





We walked the beach and found this great driftwood log.  It had all kinds of nooks and crannies in it.  We rested there for a while, then continued our search for shells on the beach.





Later, we sat on a deck overlooking the ocean and drinking fruit drinks.  After the sun set, you could see lights from people walking on the beach.  We decided to also take a walk on the beach by moonlight.  It was wonderful hearing the waves crash upon the beach.





When we returned home, we took the shells we found and used them to decorate a paperclay base we made for Kitty Mermaid to sit.  She just loved it, especially the way it sparkled.







Then, we sat down and wrote in her journal.  I just loved the paper this journal was made from, it was so natural.  Here is some of what we wrote.











Before we knew it, it was time for her to continue her journey.  Good luck in your travels Kitty Mermaid!
