RIP Africa (My Betta Fish)

*Warning: Graphic images of a deceased fish

Africa hasn’t been doing well lately and we have ben prepared for this day. He finally passed away yesterday and this morning we had his funeral. I decorated a coffin for him and made sure he had beautiful flowers.

I picked a spot in the garden near where Marb (my previous fish) is buried.

We said a few words and I was really sad. Breighton ensured me that Africa would be met by a ray of sun and the sun god Ra will take him to the fishy afterlife. I felt better! I do love mythology.

One last good-bye.

Africa was laid to rest in the garden.  I am going to hold off on a new fish for a while.
