After Coco Cay, Pool Party Time!






After arriving back on the ship from Coco Cay, we headed straight for the pool and something to eat. We spent our time in one of the two saltwater pools, and had a great time playing. It was the perfect pool for the little ones, having two levels of water and a long gate that protected Thomas from the deep end of the pool where the adults and older kids played. Thomas loved to run around in the pool and up and down the stairs leading into the pool as well as swim in the deep end with Daddy. He also entertained himself with the freshwater shower that was available to us when we got out. It was great to have the deck chairs to hang out around, and Thomas was great about heading over there when he needed a little rest and food. He'd lay back and "sunbathe" with us, or play around the chairs with his hot rods and cars. He was such a great little man about it all, and seemed to enjoy the poolside music and atmosphere just as much as we did.

The pool area was where we saw Karen and Jimmy from Little Big Town hanging out with fans, as well as said hi to Chris Cagle who walked by us and said hello. Chris ended up joining in on the belly flop contest and signed autographs out by the bar and pool for 5 1/2 hours for any of us that wanted something. I didn't go over for any of that, but it was fun to watch other people interact and to see these artists mingling with us commoners. We also had free drinks at several pool parties, watched a Kenny Chesney look alike contest, and watch lots of too burned drunk folks getting their groove on to their own groove, if you know what I mean. It was a great time to hang out, enjoy the pools and bake in the sun.
