Today we met some friends at Wilson Pool. We had planned on meeting on Wednesday, but the weather didn't cooperate. Today was perfect - sunny and warm, but not too hot. It was our first trip to this pool this summer and it turned out that they were having an Olympic day with lots of games and giveaways. For us, this meant free ice cream, tattoos, and face paint (it was technically closed when CJ got in line, but after a few tears were shed one of the nice girls gave her a quick, pink heart).
CJ and Mama went down the big, blue slide only once and CJ walked up to the toddler froggie slide, but chose not to go down that. She was simply having too much fun wading in the leisure pool and Mama had trouble convincing her to leave. When we finally did leave, four plus hours later, CJ promptly fell asleep in the car.
The only downside was when the lifeguard was trying to clear out a portion of the leisure pool that we weren't in and Mama thought it must have been for one of the Olympic games. That is, until she saw the "Baby Ruth" floating in the bottom of the pool. This caused a quick exit for Mama and CJ. A bit later, we saw another round of poop fishing going on. Two incidents within an hour or so - yikes! And apparently they do not clear the whole pool, but merely the immediate area until the fishing is done and a little bleach has been added. Good thing CJ is no longer afraid of the shower. We took a nice, long one when we got home.
