The bus picks us of at 10:00 AM and those that what to go are on there way to the Aqua Park.  The sun is out and today is hot at the Aqua Park.  So we rent chairs and umbrellas.  There are no lines so if you want to race down the slide you have to wait for someone else to come up the stairs.  The kids and adults get in some serious 3 hours of sliding.

Back on the bus and were off to the hotel to rest up for the practice.  Avery and I head to the mall for more photos and supplies.  By now I discover there is a minibus that will get you to the mall in 15 minutes for 25 cents.  Save our legs!

Lunch at the mall and its back to the hotel.
