Princesses dream of. Now when they grow up they can become a little mermaid like
Ariel thanks to a school in the Philippines.
          这是那些墙上挂着迪士尼公主画像的小女孩们梦寐以求的东西。现在,由于一所菲律宾的学校,她们自己也可以成长为爱丽儿那样的小美人鱼了。
       


          The Phillipine Mermaid Swimming Academy in Manila are offering lessons in
how to swim like the mythical creature by donning a tail and learning under
water breathing techniques.

photo shoot.The school has been a hit so far - and not just with children. They
said people of all ages have been coming to learn what it's like to be part
human, part fish.

up for a trip to the Philippines some time soon.
