On May 5, 1962, King Neptune opened his doors for all to take a Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. As we stepped from dry land to the bottom of the ocean, a gigantic corri-gated clam shell caught our eye. In the shell the Queen of this Enchanted Sea ' was crowned later in the evening. Continuing on the tour, we saw a ravishing mermaid seated on a treasure chest filled with pirate gold and jewels. A short distance from the mermaid was a large old Spanish galleon, which sank many years ago. Golden notes were flowing from a huge treasure chest near the ship. The treasure in this chest was Jerry Grose and his orchestra. We were served some flavored sea water and sand dollars while we were on our trip. We all had a very enjoyable time and hope that some time we can again return to the Enchanted Sea. The new King and Queen lead off the dancing. The retiring King and Queen make their last royal entrance. 16
