A girl's childhood dream of becoming a pro-fish-ional mermaid is going swimmingly - after completing fish school.

Andrea Liguori, 19, attended mermaid school as a child where she learned to swim using a prosthetic tail and how to perform stunning tricks.The underwater obsessive became hooked on the legendary aquatic creatures after watching a performance of The Little Mermaid aged just three.She would beg her parents to drive her from their Hernando Beach home in Florida, USA, to the tiny city of Weeki Wachee - where professional female divers have performed as mermaids since 1947.Weeki Wachee - dubbed 'The Only City of Live Mermaids' - is one of the smallest cities in the US with a population of nine but would regularly draw up to one million tourists per year at its peak in the 1960s.Andrea and her family visited the park so often that she was able to learn every routine by heart.After turning eight she was finally old enough to experience life as a mermaid and began attending mermaid school at Weeki Wachee.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.az
