Pirates Cove

This is by far the most amazing place we have ever been to! Because our brother in law, Andrew, is the architectural engineer for this place, he was able to invite us all to come while he "worked".

This estate has 20 private suites complete with bedroom and bathroom. Numerous kitchen areas, family rooms, a theater room, work out room, and racquet ball court.
It also has 3 swimming pools, 2 water slides, 3 or 4 hot tubs and numerous outdoor areas to lounge.
After we had been there for several hours continually saying things like: "That is amazing!" "This is incredible!" "Look at this" (we were seriously walking around in awe) Mike finally said, "let's just agree this is the coolest place we have ever seen, we will never see anything cooler and we will never have anything this amazing. Let's stop saying how amazing it all is!"

We seriously have close to 500 pictures of this place - and we were only there for 2 days!

I will post a few pictures here, but many more are on facebook - enjoy!
I know we did!!!!


This is the zero entry pool - great for the kids to hang out in because it is not too deep. The smaller water slide ended in this pool.

Here they are on the water slide- almost to the bottom!

This is the deepest pool. The large water slide ends here ( this water slide had my heart racing every time). There is also a rope for swinging and various places to dive from.

another picture of the same pool... you can see someone on the rope.

This was the movie screen for the 3rd pool .... we kept thinking it would be fun to watch Jaws at night in the pool - but we never made it there.

Deryn relaxing as she waited for me to finish reading 'The Lemonade War' so we could discuss it.
It was a really cute book. She read it in the car, and I read it by the pool. Fun to talk about it together.

Every where we looked there was something amazing!

Another view of the deepest pool. There are several ledges to jump from on the tower on the left. People also jumped from the top of the ship. I was not so brave....
Even Grandpa jumped from the tower! I loved swinging on the rope, but jumping is NOT for me!

The girls posed themselves for this picture! (Jansyn, Deryn & Megan)

The Whole Family!
