Another beautiful day on Paradise Island, Bahamas. Again, we hopped on the shuttle bus for some fun in the sun. My one goal for today was to get some photos of Tony and I on the speed slide. That thing is tons of fun. Next time, Traci will get to try it when she’s not pregnant.
Traci and I offered to babysit Melina tonight so Heather and Tony could have a night out by themselves. They made the jaunt to the local Fish Fry on the main island. I don’t think they tried the Conch Fritters (that was one of my other objectives). They enjoyed themselves. The food off the resort island is cheap in comparison. Afterwards they spent some time in the casino (remember, gambling is for entertainment and not for investment purposes).
While at home, Traci made some Mac and cheese for dinner for the kids. And we watched Finding Nemo. Both Melina and Kylie did well watching the movie and made it most of the way through. When they get into something on TV they don’t blink.
Looking back at the Royal Towers from across the Lagoon.
Kylie having fun playing in the sand.
Sorry this picture is tilted. It is the famed Mayan temple speed slide aptly named "Leap of Faith." There is a very cool flash video on the Atlantis website that shows off their waterpark. http://www.atlantis.com/water/aquaventure.aspx
That's me making the plunge. In this case, I feel like you fly past the shark tube so fast that you don't even realize what happened.. other than the fact that it was exhilerating.
This is the slower paced Serpent innertube ride. I was able to get Traci to ride this one with me as a double. It's a meandering serpentine slide inside the tower that discharges you in this rectangular shark tube. Their is a viewing area here that you can watch the sharks and the passers by.
Here's a good shot of the Royal towers. We took a walk around the property with Kylie and Melina while Tony and Heather were out.
This is a shot of the Harborside resort by the pool. Despite it's contrast to the look of the rest of Atlantis. These timeshares are very nice, and the property has a nice feel to it.
Catching the sunset from the point.
"cheese everyone"
