Our Trip to Cuba Part 1: Destination, pool

For Spring Break 2009, Jen and I packed up Robin, waved goodbye to the incoming flood waters, and went to Cuba.

To sum it up, the trip was GREAT. Perfect weather, good food, amazing beach, and fantastic people. As is becoming a trend nowadays, we went for a "Destination Wedding" for our friends Owen and Krista. There were about 60 people, and we stayed for a whole week in Sirenis La Salina in Varadero. It's basically a resort town with hotels lining the northern beach filled shores of Cuba.


(I'm ready for Cuba now)

So how did Robin, at 8 months old, take to such a trip? Like she was born a Commie! She was great. The plane ride there: little angel. The plane ride back: sleeping angel.

The resort consisted of two circles of condo-ish complexes. In the middle of each was a gigantic pool, one a quiet pool and one the loud pool. We spent about half our time in Cuba by the quiet pool with Robin. And man did she love it! She was one splashing baby full of fun.


(Daddy, that swim-up bar was awesome. 'tender! Hit me with a shot of your best milk!)

Most of the time, she was dressed in her sun-proof water outfit. She looked like she was trying out for the luge. Most convenient for us.

(So. Much. Pool.)

And how could I not end this with a video of splashing girl herself! Enjoy, and pretend you are there right now. I know I will.
