Hundreds of adults and children headed to the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum and Zoo (BAMZ) last Saturday for the BAMZ annual Christmas party.

The children were very excited to see Santa and BAMZ's new puppet 'Keisha the Mermaid'.

Santa entertained and posed for pictures with the children while 'Keisha the Mermaid' amused the crowds by eating lunch with the kids and their families.

A BAMZ spokesman said the event was a huge success and that Keisha proved to be particularly popular with the children.
