Spring Break Part 19...


Stacy woke up early with me one day and we took a walk to the beach and picked up breakfast for the rest of the fam-bam who was sleeping:


Then followed our morning routine by going on the waterslide:


And the lazy river:



Then kicking back in the pool:


Then the little kid play area:


Followed by some drying off and video games:


Where is Aya in most of the pictures?  This is Aya's typical routine....guarding our chairs:

Spring Break Part 18...

Aya and I felt bad for the kids because we weren't going to visit family on the trip, we weren't doing anything tourist like for them.  We were just hanging out at the pool and lounging, so we decided to take them to a luau.

We went to Paradise Cove for the luau.  It was like a cheaper version of the Polynesian Culture center except it was walking distance to the hotel.


The kids got tattoo's:



Stacy made a bracelet:


Family:


Jack isn't half bad at taking pictures so maybe I will pop up in a few more pictures now:


Stacy with a flower headdress:


On stage:


Sunset:


Stacy was brave enough to go onstage to learn how to hula:


After this Stacy was wiped out and we had to leave a little early.  I had to carry Stacy back 0.5 mile to the hotel.  Man I was sweating when we got back!

Spring Break Part 17...


Pool time fun:


Stacy dunking Aya:


Our view from lunch without the kids:


Which was soon interrupted when Jack come over to the restaurant WITHOUT Stacy.  When we asked Jack where is Stacy, Jack said she is at a pool party and he didn't want to go.  Needless to say we left lunch to find Stacy, only to find out there was an impromptu pool party and Stacy joined the fun:


After that I found an infinity jacuzzi pool:


Then the kids and I hung out in the grotto:

Spring Break Part 16...

The kids playing by themselves and having fun:





I don't feel comfortable enough to leave them alone or have drinks and nap poolside but maybe in another year or two.  Aya and I were able to go to lunch one day by ourselves and then we went snorkeling in the lagoon together:

Spring Break Part 15...

Today was the best weather day on our vacation.



We headed off to the lagoon to kayak and paddle board.  Jack and I paddled around in the kayak:


Aya had some trouble on the paddle board initially but got the hang of it pretty quick:


I won't mention how she ran over a swimmer with the paddle board and then ran the paddle board aground:


So we switched and Aya jumped in the kayak:


Jack and I were on the paddle board:


Jack's motto, "Suns out...Guns out".


We switched back and got new partners.  Jack said, "Mom paddles too slow":


Stacy loved the kayak and was all into it.  Even managed to get the paddle in the water unlike her mom:

Spring Break Part 14...

We knew Stacy would enjoy having breakfast with the Disney characters and she was happy to see Mickey:




Jack on the other hand was, "too cool for school".  He could care less about the characters but humored us with a picture:


Family picture:


I was getting the kids breakfast and Goofy and Minnie stopped at our table, so luckily Aya took some pictures:



Then Minnie made her way back to take pictures with yours truly:

Spring Break Part 13...

Stacy and I visited with Donald Duck:


Later we walked a short ways to have dinner at Roy's:


No naps for Stacy so she is zapped the second we get back to the room from dinner.  I didn't fare much better.  For some reason, I couldn't get used to the time change and I was up every morning at 3:30.
