 We
floated and sunned the day away. Spent just a bit of time in the
pool and at 2 pm it was time for the girls to head off to the
Unbirthday Party. I had signed them up at Eb and Flo’s at 9am
because the space fills up quickly. So, don’t wait if you want to
ensure a spot for your children. They had it set up nicely (sorry,
no camera with us at the time) with places at a table for each
child. The had a pinata and had candy and cupcakes and played games.
The girls really enjoyed it. And mom and dad enjoyed a frozen
mudslide on the porch in the Green Cabin Room overlooking the ocean.
VERY NICE. :-)
 After
this it was back to the beach! Have to get the most out of our Beach
rentals today! ;-) We enjoyed the beach until early evening and then
headed down to Bleachers (by the pool) for a quick dinner. We
finished up just in time to get the girls ready and off to their
Pajama Party. That gave Kristen and I enough time to relax in the
Green Cabin Room once more and have a nice dessert for two. This
thing could give the Kitchen Sink from Beaches and Cream a run for
its money. HUGE bowl filled with ice cream several toppings,
cookies, fudge brownies, banannas, and more! Very good, but way too
much for two people! We did OK on it though!
We then went for a walk since the girls were busy a couple hours
this time. The party was not a baby sitting service though. Kids
could come and go as the pleased, but we told ours to stay there and
call us if they wanted to leave early. We checked on them through
the windows a couple times and they were enjoying the movie. They
got drinks and popcorn and it looked like a fun time.
 So
Kristen and I headed into the arcade to play a few games. Sat by the
pool and eventually the movie was over. It was getting late and time
for bed. We headed to the room and after just a bit more TV we
crashed for the night. Tomorrow is a character breakfast in the am,
followed by more beach time. Very laid back and relaxing way to
spend a long weekend!

I
was the only one rising early today. Even with the early bedtime
everyone else was zonked out. I headed down to the beach for some
sunrise pictures, and enjoyed a nice walk up and down the beach.
Lots of photo opportunities including more fins breaking the surface
this morning. I wanted to convince myself they were dolphins, but
I’m pretty much positive it was more sharks feeding just offshore.
:-O
It
was another beautiful day and the sun was just coming up. I spent
some time exploring a bit and then headed back up. Just as I was
leaving the beach I got a call on the cell phone. I thought the
girls would still be sleeping and I was right! It was Moley, and the
site had been down since the previous evening. Seems that the server
company was having a REALLY bad day with network issues, Nameserver
problems and even a denial of service attack on their status
machines. I fired off an email to them, and they eventually got
everything back up and running. Thanks for the call Moley – I know
you hate calling me about this stuff at home and especially on
vacation, but no worries! Just glad everything is back up and
running again! :-)
Brinn
loved the boogie board and spent most of the day with that. One
wipeout and Maddy was MUCH happier with her simple blow up ring for
floating in the waves. No sign of our ‘finny friends’ at this time,
so we were all glad about that. The beach here is very nice (for
us). Not super wide and white powder sand like Florida West Coast
beaches, but plenty of room and never really crowded. Beautiful
views (with NO highrises in the way) and they have even marked the
turtle nests with markers and taped them off to keep people away.
Amazing how MANY nests there are in this small area.
