Was GREAT! We had a blast. The weather was perfect (even though they had 2 days of record high temps, we chose those days to be at the beach, where it was 10 degrees cooler and had a nice breeze blowing!). We did a lot of educational side trips (even though the Princess did not like one of them) and still managed to have a ton of fun.
Of course, one of the times when the kids had the most fun was at the hotel pool. Strange how something so minor could become on e of the highlights of the trip! The kids managed to convince dad to get in the pool as well. We had the whole pool to ourselves.
The Princess was a bit hesitant at first to leave the steps, but once she did...look out! She was on the rope in just a few seconds flat...she can move just as fast in the water as he can out of the water.
Mr D had purchased a snorkel and goggles at the beach and was dieing to try them out. Unfortunately he doesn't understand the concept that the top of the snorkel has to remain above water if you want to breathe in...and after a week of using them in the pool at home, he still doesn't get it!
Miss B still thinks she should have been a fish. It would have been so much easier to enjoy the water, knowing that you never have to get out!
We tried to eat at some local places, but the one time we tried at the beach...well, it was less than stellar. Our favorite meals ended up being at the 'chain' restaurants we could have eaten at while at home. We did eat at one place for lunch on River Street that was pretty good...but was a bit too heavy for the heat.
We all came back tanned, and tired!
Now, to get sewing for the Disney trip...I am sooooo far behind!
