Summer Play Challenge Continues
The Summer Play Challenge continued today. We headed for China Beach pool today. This one is on the base. I took some wonderful pictures, unfortunately there was no memory card in the camera. When it's so bright outside you can't see the screen anyway so I didn't notice the "no memory card" notice....when I did I came up with a wonderful conspiracy theory. ::snort:: I KNOW - Mom and Mike will laugh because I'm known for spinning stories....but I was sure the card was in the camera. I had placed it in the case on the poolside table. I was sure some member of our Air Force family had taken the camera, took the card, put the camera back into the case and then left. It saddened me greatly that they'd be so strapped for $ that they'd steal a $20 memory card. I got home and found the memory card in the computer.
China Beach is GREAT for little kids. Jared came with us AGAIN today - we are getting spoiled. This pool is 4 feet deep at it's DEEPEST. It's bigger than the kiddy pool at the lake. It has two big play structures....one shaped like a mushroom that continuously sprays water and then a tower with buckets that fill and dump on you. I'm tellin ya the photos were awesome, y'all.
We were sad that the friends we planned on playing with couldn't make it. BUT we were blessed that Mary and Deja and their children were at the pool. Everyone had someone to play with. The only drawback is that there is no shade over this pool. After two days in the sun, we're all a bit crispy. We'll have to think of something else to do tomorrow.

Another great day in your play challenge! The pools you are discribing sound very nice! How fun for the kids.
De'Etta, it was fun to see you guys again yesterday. Doug commented to Emma, "TWO days in a ROW to see Arielle?! Aren't you LUCKY!" Everson's first words this am (at 6:30) were, "Mom, can we go to that water place again today?" Sorry to hear about the sunburns...you could try Neon Jungle if you need an indoor activity. Glow-in-the-dark mini golf. Not too far from where you live.
Wow, glow-in-the-dark mini golf! How cool is that.
I'll have to check that out Deja! I would think tomorrow....but Friday is full....maybe we'll have to continue the play challenge into next week....
Oh, I got some FABULOUS pictures at the pool Wednesday -- I'll post them sooner or later & you can copy & post them on your blog & pretend like they're YOUR children (& really confuse people).
I didn't actually PLAY with my children, I just took pictures.
Hey - there's a plan Liz....
