Sadly Art got sick in the night.  Seems like every time he eats any kind of fish, he gets sick. He ate fish and chips and lobster bisque.  Poor guy!  I feel so bad for him.  He missed out on so much fun today. He spent it all in the room…… next to the bathroom  

The weather today was absolutely stellar!  The Ol Coonster, Trixie and I all went for breakfast.  We did the restaurant instead of the buffet. Poor Trixie ordered some toast (gluten free).  It looked lightly toasted on the outside but the inside was completely frozen.  She sent it back and the manager brought her another piece and apologized.  But you know gluten free bread isn’t the most tasty.  It was edible.  She had some crumbs from it on the table and brushed them on to the floor.  As soon as the crumbs hit the floor, a little bird swooped down and put a piece of crumb in his mouth, then immediately spit it out and hopped over to me just a squawking.  I looked at it and said “I know gluten bread isn’t any  good”.   We got to see a mama whale and her baby swim by.  That was really cool.  We also aw some dolphins throughout the day. 

After breakfast, we went to the same loungers we had  yesterday.  We were among the very few people at the pool.  In fact, we got in the pool and we were the only ones,  It was great! The service at the pool was awesome.   We got in the pool a couple times but only this morning were we the only ones.  The pool water is so nice and warm.  This afternoon Trixie and I tried out the hot tub.  When we first got in there were only a couple of folks in there but it soon filled up so we didn’t stay in very long.  

One of the pool guys here is just so much fun.  If you have watched the show Acapulco you will understand if I tell you this guy is Hector.  We just love him.   We found out from visiting with him today he lived in Boise, Couer d’Alene, and, Sandpoint  What a small world!  A lot of folks arrived today and they are expecting  more tomorrow.  The hotel should be pretty full.  Our pool guys said he would reserve our loungers for us the next few days.  That will be so great.

Poor Art is so sick so I went in search of crackers for him.  I had no luck but on my adventures I met a lot of new friends.  The elevators are really an adventure here.  You meet some of the funnest people.  I was invited to karaoke but more than one person.  I am not a karaoke person but I enjoyed getting invited.  One of the workers helping me find crackers told me he thought I was gorgeous, asked me if my hair was real and waved his hands in front of me telling me he loved all it.  Made me laugh!

Before dinner, we went to one of the loungers to watch the game…… pitiful.  You guessed it our team lost.  Some of the folks we met in the elevator were at the restaurant we had dinner.  The woman jokingly asked if we were stalking her and we were joking with them when we heard a deep male voice chiming in and realized that one of the men at a table behind us had been in the elevator too……. I am telling you the elevators are so adventurous. We had a lovely dinner until I realized, my meal had raw shrimp in it.  I sure hope I don’t follow Art in the sick bed from it.  Oh I really hope!

Tomorrow Trixie and I are scheduled for a spa appointment….. I can’t wait!
