As I’ve reached total Nirvana- or as close to a Zen state as I’ll ever get… My daughter and I were supposed to go to 830 yoga, but when we woke at 745, we decided – Um….nope…not today…
Rain has plagued our entire vacation…this morning being not exception. So with hiking off the table, we played some board games. When the rain stopped we played lawn games (I truly know what it feels to be in the early 1900’s, now that I’ve held a croquet mallet…) and then, sun! Which meant- pool.
I did have to stare at the hat for a bit. What is it? A cake? A dead animal? lol

I haven’t played croquet in years but I used to love hammering away at those little balls.

That resort looks great, just the kind of getaway that is needed. The hat shot was interesting even if that was not what you were going for, I would say it was a success.

It was great because it really gave us the chance to unplug and be simple, if that makes sense

I love croquet. It was my favorite outdoor game as a child. Where we live now is too hilly to set it up, but I have the mallets and balls in the basement… just in case I get somewhere flat again.

OMG! Battleship. I can’t believe it. My family used to play it all the time. Thanks for the memory. Great pics. I love the haunted one. I wonder what that blob is. Interesting

You had lots of entertainments to choose from. I loved the Bocce lawn. It looks like velvet.

Bocce was so much fun, though my daughter crushed us. I thought I was doing ok, but no, she was way better!! Lawn was immaculate!

Sounds blissful! My friend told me about a Battleship App that you can play on I-Pads which has explosions and torpedos…I might need to check it out! ~ Lynn

Oh the memories you brought back. We played croquet a lot as a family growing up! And my battleship was always sunk. LOL! Good to you for winning.
Yes, rain has definitely been in the air for a long period. We are looking for instructions on how to build an ark soon! At least we do have periods of sunshine from time to time, glad you got to enjoy the pool.
