Water and Fun, Day 1

After purchasing some boogie boards, we hit the waves.

It didn't take long for the boys to figure out how they worked. Now they are trying to figure out how to hang ten (just kidding!).

It wasn't long before they made a surfing buddy.

Then it was inside for lunch and then the water slides and pools.  It wasn't long before they made a friend inside too! Mikey and his new friend found a giant chess set inside and began a game.

Pawns were swapped and moves were thought out.

The game ended in a stalemate.

After dinner, we headed out for our first of many rounds of mini-golf this week.

For those of you not familiar with mini-golf, if they have to point out the best path for the ball,

It's probably not the best path for the ball.  I chose the "short cut" and ended up three feet further from the hole than everyone else (who did not take the short cut).

On one hole, you couldn't actually see the hole because it was obscured by overhanging plants.  After the four of us had teed off, we walked the five yards or so to the "green".  Mikey's green ball was against the rail.  Mike's red ball was about a foot from the hole.  My purple ball was a foot and a half beyond the hole.  Matt's orange ball was no where to be seen.  Now this happens occasionally when the young putter forgets his own strength, but this time we found it, not out of bounds (in the weeds or in the parking lot, which has happened), but...

In the HOLE!!!

This is Matt's favorite course so far this week.

More from the beach tomorrow.
