Vacation 3 (At the Condo)

Well we finally arrived at our destination Boca West. This place is really something. I always refer to it as Disney Land because it just to perfect. There is not a blade of grass that is out of place, not a cigarette butt on the grounds and there are robots that look like real people working everywhere. I made up that last one, but you get the picture.

Before you can get onto the grounds you have to pass through a check point. You have to tell the guard who's condo you are staying in and also your name. Now you have to do this every time. Even if you, by mistake, backed up a foot, while at the check point, you would have to give the same information all over again. I don't know how many times I had gone out and in, maybe 100 in the course of 10 days, but each and ever time it was the same thing. I knew every guards name by heart, but I would still have to show my licence to them every time. I guess it's to keep people like me out of there.

At the condo there are parking spot for each owner. The parking spot for our condo was the longest distance from the front door. That in it self is not to bad but, all week long we were the only car in the parking lot. And me being the nice guy that I am parked just in our designated space. The down side to this parking space was the weather. It was one million degrees with 200 percent humidity.(The last sentence was an exaggeration.) By the time I reached the car I needed a shower. I spent the whole vacation with dark circles of sweat under my arms. A real turn on for people.

We finally get settled and off to the pool we go. Like I said before this place is manicured to the max. The pool is beautiful and the water everyday was about 94 degrees. But one of the best thing, was that there were virtually no one using the pool. It was good because of the privacy but bad because I could not show off my pure white body. I don't want to say that I was too white, but the guy cleaning the pool asked me if I was an albino.

In the pool area they have a hot whirlpool also. I did not go in because I did not want to boil myself, the temp of the water felt about 150 degrees. But I did heat up a bowl of soup in it. Really convenient.

The people I did meet at the pool were very nice but a little out of my league. I was talking to one man in the pool and he told me that he flys down every two weeks.
I of course asked him if his arm were tired. That's when he doggy paddled away from me. Another person a women had so much gold jewelry on when she entered the pool, she sunk right to the bottom like a gold sinker. I told one women that my wife and I were from Maine, and she said "What part of Florida is Maine in"? I said " no it is a state". She says " is it the 52nd state". I said " No its to the right of Atlantis" and doggy paddled away.

All and all the stay at the condo was fine. Is nice every once in a while to rub elbow with upper crust. But now my elbows are all chafed and red.
