EDITORS COMMENTS
Swim Pals. Dive in, said the sea lions. Thanks, I will" said Carol Fisher, age 17. In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the summer of 1954 at Chessington Zoo in Surrey, England. The image captures a joyful moment as Carol Fisher fulfills her dream of swimming with sea lions. Carol, a teenager hailing from Clapham in London and working at her mother's dress shop, had always been fascinated by these magnificent creatures. With an infectious smile on her face and excitement sparkling in her eyes, she fearlessly took the plunge into their pool. The sea lions welcomed their new swim pal with open flippers as they playfully swam alongside her. It was a magical encounter between human and animal that showcased the beauty of nature's harmony. This photograph not only immortalizes Carol's unforgettable experience but also serves as a reminder of our connection to the natural world around us. It transports us to a time when such simple joys brought immense happiness. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let it inspire us to embrace our passions fearlessly like Carol did that day - diving headfirst into life's adventures with boundless enthusiasm just like these playful sea lions.
