Mermaids exist, right?
I had heard there was a giant Mermaid erected on St. Claude Avenue and then I went in search of it. It was by the Rusty Pelican but it was no longer there when we went cruising up and down the street looking for it. Then I started questioning my sanity – do mermaids really exist I wonder?
Today, I found out the mermaid was taken down to be in a Chinese New Year parade this coming Sunday. The metal worker who created the giant sculpture is a friend of my yoga instructor. She said you can see the mermaid Sunday night as the parade starts in the Bywater and heads to the Quarter. Since I’m off to the Big Apple, the mermaid once again eludes me.
