"Someone has asked how mermaids ride a motorcycle, I am sure I do not know. I was thinking the bike was more like a found object to the mermaids and they delighted in its presence. The scene harkens to Crystal Cove which is just south of Newport Beach in California. Many times I have watched the sun set there." -Jake
