Every day was SO hot there. The humidity was high, the first few days we had thunderstorms each afternoon. It was not your upper 80's or even 90 degree heat. This heat was HOT. I am talking about every day above 100 degrees. It topped out one day at 109.
What do you do on days like this? We went to the pool and found refuge in the water. The warm 80+ degree water. I don't know how everyone else got in the hot tubs I found them to hot in this heat. At 80+ degree the pools were very warm.
There were 4 outdoor pools, 1 indoor pool, 4 hot tubs, a waterfall, and a fountain pool that had 3 water drops out of it.
Smiley and Evan played in the baby pool. It was a foot deep and very chlorinated. They had fun But they eventually grew tired of it.
There was a pool that went to 4 feet deep that we sent the majority of our time in. It had a waterfall that ran in to it and the three water drops with a seat under it coming from the fountain pool.
Everyone enjoyed playing in that water. The big boys let it run on top of their head and Smiley would stand on the seat and stick his fingers in it.
The pool was nice because we were not very nervous about the big boys in it. For the most part the big boys could just stand in it. Where they could not stand there was always a ledge, latter or seat near by they could quickly swim to. With it not being to big you could easily find where abouts in it they were.
The big pool was Gregory's favorite. It was larger and deeper so he could jump in the deep end, 5 feet, and swim all over with out his bubble. Yeah Gregory!
Evan enjoyed playing catch in this pool. Of course it was catch him.
There was also an adult pool, no kids allowed! We did not get to go in there but I heard it was nice.
The indoor pool my mom and I used everyday for water aerobics. That was a nice easy exercise to start your day. Both of us are looking to continue it. The boys so desperately wanted to swim in there eventually we took them. The had a blast. They grabbed their noodles and swam for hours.
With such warm temperatures there was no need to swim indoors even at night the outdoor pools were still warm. One evening that it did not thunderstorm we enjoyed an evening of swimming and watching a movies they had playing on a big poolside screen.
Thank God for the pools to beat the heat. We were in them every day but one and that was a special day and we still got wet!
