Kalhari Waterpark

 Last week we had our first vacation in over a year!  We took the week of spring break off and booked a couple of nights at Kalhari indoor water park.  Years earlier I had gone here with the boys, they were little and we tagged along with Crystal and Matt and their kids when Josh was in Iraq.  I remember how much fun it was, it proved not to disappoint this time either.  

We got there and had booked a 2 room suite.  With 3 kids and a blended family, I wanted to make sure everyone had there space.  And they did.  We checked out the arcade, got them all set up with their own arcade cards, walked around and Bob and I went to the water park and the hot tub.  It is an indoor/outdoor hot tub and it was cold that first night, it was so wonderful seating in that warm water watching the stars.  

Came back to the room, the boys had hooked up electronics to their tv, of course.  But we ended up playing a couple of rounds of cards (Bum) and called it a night. 

The next day, we hit the buffet and the water park.  And although the boys spent a whole lot less time than I assumed they would, I know they enjoyed the water, especially the lazy river.   The life guards probably didn't enjoy them, but they did.

Later that day, we ate a great dinner at the Italian restaurant there and then hit the arcade.  We had done the escape room too earlier that day.  But we had bowling, miniature golf and countless other things to chose from.  

Everyone one hit it big at the arcade in one way or another. Bob and I worked on getting the Willy Wonka collection. Cregan was hitting up some machine where he hit 2000 tickets at one point.  Alex met a girl and Collin is just along for the ride.  

The final day we waited for 2 hours for the kids to get their prizes from the arcade and traveled home.  Thursday we rested, we were just worn, slap out.   It was a great mini vacation.
