Mom's night off in vail

Not too many places provide you with sunscreen.

I should have put my hand in here, this was a giant cup, about 4x bigger than a
usual teacup. The breakfast buffet was lovely, the view of the river and the sun on us...ahhhh

View from our breakfast table.






The view from our balcony. We ate breakfast under one of the umbrellas.





The spa at the Sonnenalp





Only place I have seen this, pretty cool a swimsuit water extracter.






A yummy dinner at Terra Bistro
It was fun to say that we had 9 kids between the 2 of us! It was a great time to go to Vail(May 21) totally deserted had the whole town to ourselves. The drawback, Blu's was closed and since I forgot my swimsuit there was no where to buy one!

Dolphin cruise and the required girl in white pics

Like whale cruises, it is better to just enjoy the dolphins bc this is as good as the pictures get.


The whole crew before the sunset dolphin cruise.

The sunset on the sunset cruise


Ok, so we forgot matches! They are posing! Happy 14th Drew and 9th Jade.



Such posers! It was very windy, but it was good we

What a loser...

Wear shoes in the Sea Shell capital of North America

We did a 10 mile bike ride ending with some awesome ice cream.


The girls with their new friend Charlotte. Pictured right after Asia
was found.


Asia pictured after the big ordeal with Margaret Rasmussen and her
daughter, Amy. They watched Jade while the rest of us were hunting for
Asia.



Neinei and Drew





The braids in the girls' hair helped keep the hair out of their face.




The biggest shell we found, but it was alive so we had to throw it back.



The kids were scraggily, but the sunset was the best. You can see why
I had the braids put in their hair.
I had a loser vacation. I first lost my Blackberry doing the Sanibel stoop(gathering shells) into the ocean. Then on Thursday after the bike ride. Asia was lost. Heading to our beach area, she thought neinei told her that I was walking up the beach. The good news was that our resort the Sundial did a fabulous job alerting everyone through out the whole resort on their walkie talkies and they had a 15 minute rule, to call the police. I really thought she tried to go back to our room, but the Police found her within 5 minutes and she was just strolling along the beach. She was completely calm with a little starfish in her hand when the policeman drove her up to us in his little dunebuggy. Nei nei said she had to give the policeman a hug. Everything else was great about the vacation, but that did but a little damper on it!
