To celebrate Melanie's birthday (of course the celebration deserves its own post!), we booked a room at the Staybridge Suites in Carmel. I chose this hotel because it not only has a pool (and hot tub), but also has a movie room. Melanie invited her two cousins, and two friends from school, to stay the night. What I thought was a great deal for 20 hours of entertainment turned even better when we got our room for free because of a booking error. We ended up with a king-sized bed and a pull-out couch (instead of 2 queens plus the pull out). The girls had a great time, and there were a LOT of laughs and shenanigans. There were five trips to the pool -we closed it on Saturday night and opened it on Sunday morning! We watched Hotel Transylvania 2; after some equipment errors about an hour in at the screening room, we finished the movie in the room. I ended up with the king-sized bed to myself - although of course I didn't sleep much due to checking on my charges all night! It was a perfectly-chosen group of girls who got along great and had a lot of fun!
