Dottie: not cheap :p
You can do it, if you ate no name brands of food, don't go out unless you have to (work, school, church) and only spend what you have to (house bills).Quote:

Nope.
I would totally love to go to this!!! Omg how amazing would it be to meet all of the other Australian mers?!? AGHH this will be incredible if it happens!!
it is happening. We have a facebook page and everything
We do ocean Whisper it is definitely happening even have the location decided!
yep. and the location is awesome
That's great! The only thing is, flights from the opposite side of Australia are in the $1000s, and I won't be able to get that kind of money in a year. :( I would really love to be able to go though :) that pool looks perfect for mermaids :D
If Perth is where you are from, then its not that much, they're about $800 return ish, even cheaper if you find a deal :)
Where I live it will probably be 400 returnish since to mackay is normally 550 return round abouts at least last time I traveled it was so perth shouldn't be too bad and that is 2 connecting flights in mine since I have to fly out from my regional airport
Could you please link the Facebook Page for this? I searched for it but nothing turned up? I would love to go to make contact with other local Mers =)Quote:

I would definitely love that.
Sharing rooms would be a brilliant idea, it would be nice as we could discuss things all mermaid :)
Can I still join if I only own a monofin?

I'll come regardless monofin or tail :D
So exciting, thank you to everyone who came up with the idea and organised this event!
Elle is right, there's no requirement to attend. In saying that though, based on current wait times with the main silicone tail makers I think unless you ordered from MerNation or Mertailor you won't get it in time since both FinFolk and Merbellas wait times are about a year at the moment, assuming you got a slot right away.Quote:

Regardless if its tail or monofin, I'll still join. Mermaid Mahina has a good range of monofins that I would like to purchase now while I am waiting for my tail.
Her FB page says 200-300 days but you're almost certainly looking towards the later portion of that.Quote:
