Day 8-Pool day and talk like a Pirate day.

We went back and forth till literally the night before on what we were gonna do this day. Some of the family went to Sea World. We wanted to go but were afraid the kids would be grumpy from the non-stop busy days back to back. We learned on Tues that Cali. traffic sucks! They also really wanted to swim in the hotel pool but since we had been gone from 7am-10pm pretty well every day we hadn't had time. We decided to ask them what they wanted to do and they all wanted to stay at the hotel and swim.

So we lathered on the sunscreen and headed to the pool.

We go there right as it opened and were basically the only ones there for awhile.

I was in and out of the pool doing some laundry.

After swimming we changed and played on the putt putt course the resort had.

Then we rented some movies from the front and the kids relaxed while i cleaned up the room and did some packing.

We got a text from the hotel that it was national pirate day. They had  a treasure hunt for the kids and some eye patches to wear.

We found all the stuff on the treasure map (except  one that we found out had been moved later)

And earned some "Pirates Booty"

Then they had some treasure boxes for the kids to decorate. They all thought they were pretty cool.

They also had pirate hats for the kids.

We also did a bit of grocery shopping this day to restock on snacks and buy caffeine-a case of it for $10 instead of 1 large one for $5
