News stories about Recreational Mermaiding

Post links to news stories about the merfolk community here. Its always interesting to see how the community is represented in the news. Here are a couple to start it off:

Stuff.co.nz: Surfing Mermaid Makes a Splash (http://www.stuff.co.nz/oddstuff/6257780/Surfing-mermaid-makes-a-splash)

New Straits Times: When Mermaids Are Not Creatures of Myth (http://www.nst.com.my/nation/general/when-mermaids-are-not-creatures-of-myth-1.74013)

@Raina: You're so articulate! I wish I could be as eloquent. I always clam up and stutter during interviews. And I love the "coming to shore to read books" explanation. Great job!

Nice work Raina you do such a good job! And it is allways fun to see how much a person can change over the years!

I wish I could have had an experience meeting a mermaid like this myself when I was a kid. These kids are so lucky they don't even know.

He is starting up a Mermaid Monday on his blog and the first up was Raina. He'll likely be putting up more of the merfolk from around here.
