Vacation Day 5...Cannon Ball!!!

Lazy day so far. We got up late and Jacie made everyone breakfast, it was delicious. We then headed to the pool at 11:00am. Funny thing happened there…there are a lot of pool toys that the residents leave at the pool and everyone shares. Me and my 6 year old niece Bailey were throwing a plastic torpedo around and she would dive to the bottom to get it, she was really excited because this was the first time she was able to hold her breath to swim to the bottom of the pool. As we were playing a young boy came over the us and told us that it was his torpedo and he took it from us…well I was a little miffed at this and my niece was pissed off too and she is only six. So I did the proper adult thing…I cannon balled him and all of his little friends. This was probably the best cannon ball I have ever done…a few innocents were dampened sitting around the edge of the pool, but it was for a good cause. Bailey thought it was the neatest thing, we are planning another round of cannon balls tomorrow if the same kids are at the pool.


Stay tuned for more…

Many hours later:

We checked out the Northside Park to do some walking this evening. It was a beautiful park, it has many ball fields, a large play playground, three walking paths, tons of open fields, a pier, and much much more. The next time any of you get to Ocean City please take some time and spend an evening at this park. We chose to walk the mile path, and we did 5 laps, the other walking paths are three quarters of a mile and a half mile.

After the walk all of us met up and headed to Cold Stone Creamery, which is torture when you are trying to eat healthier. Jacie and I split a sugar-free, fat-free, and flavor-free vanilla with almonds, graham crackers and mini chocolate chips. It was OK, but nothing compared to their original creations. Please enjoy the pic of my 2 year old niece enjoying her ice cream. Catch you later, gators.
My niece making sure the bowl is empty.
