Hotel Swimming Pools

Before kids, I didn't really care for Hotel swimming pools.
Over chlorinated, rogue hairs floating amok,
dirty pool decks and obnoxious kids.

It's why we pay ridiculous amounts of money to

We may have actually logged more time in the pool, than we did sleeping.

than anywhere else.
Even as a fussy baby, if he was floating, he was silent and completely content.

Charlie even figured out how to float all by himself!
Oh, and here is Haystack Rock.
Thankfully, it was right outside our room, otherwise, we
may not have even seen it this trip!

And today, I saw flashes of my future of raising fearless boys:
