I last left off with my son throwing the huge rocks that were in the water. I enjoyed seeing the fish swim around you. One woman started freaking out because the fish were swimming around her seat that she dragged into the water. This morning was kind of crazy as far as the swimmers go. One man fell off his inner tube and almost drown. It took the life guards about 30 secs to respond, because I think they didn't know if the man was playing or not. The man's daughter started screaming for help, saying my dad can't swim. Why would you go out that far and you can't swim? These are questions I still ask myself even though I have seen victims of drowning, because I work in an ER. So sad to have to witness vacationers loose their lives. Well moving on from those downers. After those episodes it was time to eat. We were close by Cookies, so once they opened we headed over to get some grub.
Here is my plate and it is the only one I managaed to take a picture of.
I thought that the food was good. The kids didn't want to eat that much, because they wanted to head back to the water. After lunch we lounged on the beach a little bit longer before we noticed some storm clouds approaching
At this point four hours had past, so we headed back so that we would not get caught in the rain. I have said this before, that we live 20 minutes near beautiful beaches that can rival the Carribean beaches. I never thought you can find this kind water in the US. Here are some photos of the beach near our home.

Ok, enough of that! So we waited about 10 minutes to board the tram to get back to the ship. Here are a couple of photos on the way back.
Once we got off the tram we washed off our feet at the stations that they had for that purpose, and returned the borrowed towels. Today I was finally going to ride the Aquaduck and I did with shear happiness. The wait was about 15 minutes and it seemed to move quickly. This was the line before I sat and waited for it to die down.
The kids wanted to play in the pool, so I found some shade nearby and watched DD. DH and DS rode the Aquaduck a couple of times. After about three hours I was ready to go shower and change clothes. So I dragged the kids out of the pool and we all headed to the room to get changed. We had some characters to meet.....
TO BE CONT'D!
