I went to discover the Trocadero aquarium in Paris. Built in 1867, it is the first aquarium in the world. It really is full of 1000 wonders:Sharks, jellyfish, corals, an impressive number of specimens are presented. From the entrance, in the corridors with subdued lights, bright and beautiful colors emanate from the pools, and we let ourselves be amazed by this aquatic world which is offered to us, within easy reach... And like Ulysses, like a bewitchment, I was seduced, attracted, by the field of a mermaid...
Marine legend, mermaids have always fascinated young and old alike. The Paris aquarium is now offering a magical show, an immersion in a fairy tale, told, played, and sung, by Claire the mermaid "The three songs of the mermaid" , captivating chimera, at the center of many myths of our childhood.
During the show, we let ourselves be drawn into a story, that of a beautiful mermaid, who seduces a diver, a shell fisher, by singing her wonderful music. The story, with twists and turns that arouse the interest and surprise of children, also allows everyone to let themselves be lulled by wonderful songs.
Claire offers us pretty dances under water, she greets the public, and thus creates a real bond with those who watch her. His story is told, we are immersed, charmed and fascinated.
Impressive feat, she is in apnea throughout the show, of course comes back to the surface from time to time, but repeatedly offers us with the same ease if I may say, as if breathing underwater was natural for her, an enchanting universe. Her smile and her delicate movements lead us into a marvelous ballet, and then as if by magic we let ourselves go…
At the end of the show, the children are invited to come closer to the water screen to see Claire more closely, and here again a nice setting appears:By observing the wonder and happiness of all her children, this reminds us that fairy tales should not be forgotten. This magic will never cease to exist.
So of course this show is like a tale for toddlers! Nevertheless, we let ourselves be carried away, after all, haven't we all kept a child's soul?
