Hola from under the sea!
« on: January 07, 2006, 16:22:00 »
Hello everyone and Happy New Year! :wave:

My name is Sirena (which is the Spanish word for mermaid).

My papa, Captain Henry :arrr:, told me about this forum and I decided to join, especially when I found out there was a forum just for kids, and that Queen Candy was here!

I started liking Playmobil when I was 4 (I am 7 now) after a friend gave me the Nativity set. I like all the themes, but my favorites are the fairy tale castle with the new unicorn sets, and the (old) dollhouse.  :)

By the way, the message title is a pun: Hola means hello in Spanish, and ola (prounced the same) means wave (not this kind :wave: but the kind you find in the ocean). ;)

(And can you tell I like smileys! ;D)

Welcome from England, Sirena.  It's nice to see you here.  Thank you, too, for the explanation of the pun in your message title.

The Spanish word "sirena" is similar to the Englsh word "siren"one of whose meanings is a mermaid.

Hi there, Sirena!

What a beautiful name you have. It matches your lovely avatar very well. :)

I didn't know that 'ola' was Spanish for wave. I like puns, especially clever ones like that. 8-)

Queen Candy will be very excited and happy when I let her know you are here too. :D

Have fun at PlaymoFriends! :-*

Hello, Sirena ...

A BIG welcome from the beautiful island of St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands. As you probably already know, the Virgin Islands are located in the same Caribbean where Cap'n Henry's Playmobil pirates plunder and pillage ... :arrr:

Sirena, you should have lots of fun here at PlaymoFriends!

the Spanish word "sirena" is for both "mermaid" and "siren" (the kind you find on police cars and fire trucks)  ;)

Hi Sirena.

  Welcome to Playmofriends, your house must be full of every Playmobil theme ever released, with you your Brother and Papa all collecting and playing with it.
