The kids loved the ocean. It was mezmorizing. We spent a couple hours there the first day, just walking along in the sand. There is nothing like bare feet in the sand. This place also had 3 pools, one heated, and 2 hot tubs. The kids didn't care that the unheated pools were cold. They just wanted to swim. It had free movie rentals and alot of room. The only thing that was hard, was getting them to do their homework, that we asked for ahead of time, so they wouldn't get behind in their classwork. No one wanted to do homework. Including Gene and I. We didn't watch the news or get on the internet for 4 days. Let me tell you, that was a welcome break.
