On this particular swim I asked Mermaid Bjossa to help me with my figure 8 flips (something I've been struggling a bit with recently). Without a doubt, Mermaid Bjossa does the most appealing figure 8 flips and so I was really excited when she agreed to help a fish out! Mermaid figure 8 flips with a surface are hard to do! Mermaid Bjossa gives me some serious pointers and helps me get back on track! 💖
I feel so blessed to have such a supportive fish to swim with! She never makes me feel badly when my physical limitations get in the way and any time I have a breakthrough with something (even something as small as touching the bottom of the pool) she cheers me on and it makes all the difference! 💖
I'm very excited for our next swim session to see what other new moves we can come up with and to see if I can finally nail an EPIC figure 8 flip! Happy Swimming! Courtney Mermaid

Overall I highly recommend this fin for practice swims as it makes the whole experience far simpler as I'm not having to haul a giant tail bag with a huge monofin in it. Do you have a preferred monofin for practice swims? Leave me a comment and let me know! Happy Swimming! Courtney Mermaid This post includes affiliate links for FINIS. All opinions are my own.
 This mermaid swims outside at night in the dark... Swimming in the dark, outside is one of my favourite things! Nothing beats a spooky evening spent underwater! 👻 Have you ever been on a mermaid swim at night, outside? A few things that are definitely not super obvious in the video: 1. I can't see ANYTHING. The only thing I can make out is the colour of the lights. I can't see the bottom of the pool, or the walls, or even my camera. Why? Your ability to see underwater is HUGELY dependent on the amount of light available. On a bright sunny day I can see well enough to make out faces and even expressions underwater. Cool right? 2. Parts of the pool were FREEZING COLD. Any time I do a backflip, my face dips into the COLDEST WATER EVER! Well maybe not EVER, but it was chilly as heck! 3. I'm actually not alone for this swim! I do my best to always swim with a buddy because SAFETY FIRST. I was sad that none of the footage I took with me AND Mermaid Zelda turned out nicely. I ended up make a last-minute decision to just shorten the video and tell a different story instead. I hope I get to do another night swim in this pool again soon! It was absolutely breathtaking and swimming at night has to be one of my fave spooky activities! Happy Swimming! Courtney Mermaid
