The pool

The pool at the hotel was great. It was perfect for winding down at the end of the day, or to cool off after being at the parks all day. There were many activities for the kids to do. Every 1/2 hour a new game started. There was an 8' beach ball that went into the pool, pool volleyball, pool basketball, musical chairs, bingo, dancing, music trivia, scavenger hunts, etc. One day while we were all sitting at the pool my father said that the pool was his favorite part of vacation. Most days, we all were at the pool together. My father said it made him happy to see everyone enjoying themselves and if that was all he saw throughout the week he would have been satisfied. The odd thing about the week was that we all agreed, except for going to Magic Kingdom together, we would all split up and do our own thing. But what happened was we all wanted to go to the same places and see the same thing. So really, only Thursday and Friday we split up and did our own thing. We would go to the parks together, do a little together, and then go on our way. My parents were great. I really didn't think that they would spend so much time at the parks or at the pool ( and in the pool ) as they did. They must have been exhausted. But, they both always had smiles on their faces and ready to go. My kids, husband and myself could not stop saying thank you to them.
