The One Where Someone Steals Our Tube

Yay for a day off!  Today was so nice, not having to work at all!!  I got to sleep in a bit, be productive, go to the temple, and have lots of fun!  This particular blog post will focus on the fun part, because that's much more exciting than errands, right?  :)

My roommate Allie and I are making good use of our Seven Peaks "Pass of All Passes!"  We've gone to Seven Peaks twice this week!  So Much Fun!  And the really nice part is that if we get tired or it gets too hot or too busy, we can just leave.  I love not feeling like I have to stay all day and do everything in order to get my money's worth.  We can do what we want, for as long (or as short) as we want, then head out.

Anyways, we got an early start today, and left for the water park about 10am.  Another benefit of the pass is that you can get in before it opens to the public.  So we get there, and decide we want to rent an inner tube, something we didn't do on Monday.  We get a double tube and try out a bunch of water slides.  It was fun, pretty low key, just about perfect.  We also spend some quality time relaxing in the lazy river.  We take a few breaks to dry off in the sun and reapply sunscreen (because I like to burn, which will be a post for another time).  So about 1pm we are laying on our towels, drying off and just relaxing.  We've put the tube on the ground, right by our feet--seriously, like 6 inches from our toes-- and are lying on our backs talking.  At one point Allie sits up, and says "Someone took our tube!"  So I sit up and sure enough, our tube is gone!  We didn't even notice anyone taking it!  Nor did the random guy standing practically over our heads watching his own family's stack of tubes.  All we could do is laugh!  Luckily we had done all the slides and had been there for a while, so we weren't super irked.  It was just funny that A) someone would take it and B) we didn't even notice.  So we didn't get the $1 you usually get for returning the tube, but oh well.  We figured it was the way it was, and we were fine to leave anyways.  But it made for a fun story, and we'll always be able to say "Hey, remember that one time we went to Seven Peaks and someone took our tube?"

Oh, and to top off a fun morning in the sun, we tried out the new Maui Bowl in Provo.  They have acai there that I have been dying to try.  SOOO good!  Reminded me of the good old days eating acai in Brazil...
