很多人 at the pool!

So on Tuesday the day i have off, i thought it would be nice to take Sarah to the water park near our house..i even asked other people to come. Kelly and Nik, and then Gemma Guinness and Annabell. So when we arrived at 930 it was a little crazy but not too bad...by 1030 it was well mental, totally packed with people. I joked asking if there was a limit to the number of people...Kelly didn't think there would be, and she was right by 11 it was HEAVING like so many people (children) there was school after school after school, crazy. i'd hate to be in charge of 5 kids here, what a nightmare. Kelly and Nik left and i felt terrible about the fact that i'd dragged them there and Nik didn't really want to be there. Sarah was ok, she was tierd and thus clingy and grumpy...not the best combo, i asked Annabell to come along thinking she was just looking after Gemma, but she had baby Guinness too...really not the best, so we went to the quieter side away from the sides and to the little paddling pool like thing. sarah and gemma had fun, Guinness slept like a baby and Annabell and i were glad to go home.
Needless to say i won't go there till the kids go back to real school in September!
i'll try and get photos from Kelly to show you how many people Taiwanese think is ok in a small water park!

Ugh, sounds awful!! We have a great little pool here for kids only, it is shallow and bigger than the average kid pool. But, it is only open for about 2 months out of the year, it is already closed for the summer. Today, it is raining anyway. My girls looooove to swim.
