I was just thinking about my family and my childhood and how it could have contributed to my love of Ariel! I've never really realised it before but it could have! lol My mum and dad were both sea cadets when they were younger and then my dad joined the navy, he wasn't really around for when my brother and sister were born as he was off being a sailor but he was when I was born and so both my parents got me swimming at a very young age, they both say I could swim before I could walk! lol We used to live in Gibralter, so we were on the beach and in the sea alot, apparently one day when I was about 2/3? I fell over in the sea but just stayed there floating on the water, my dad panicked obviously and thought I was drowing, picked me up and said what are you doing?? and I just said "Looking at the fishes!" LOL
My dad obviously had alot of navy pictures that I used to look at and he always had a giant sea shell on display, his navy certificate even has mermaids on it! So when I was 5 or 6 when The Little Mermaid came out, my parents took me to the cinema to watch it and of course I fell in love with the movie! Most likely because I related to it alot!
The sea, the fishes, the sailors, the beach, the mermaids! No wonder I love this movie!!! LOL
Does anybody else see a connection with their past??
