Christmas Day at Emirates Palace

Sargon and Co. were staying at the Emirates Palace (I think our house was just too posh for them..ha ha.)  We took Marilyn, her sister, Winnie, Brad's parents and Cairo to see the place and enjoy the adventure pool.  Only guests can get past the lobby so it was a great opportunity for some of us to take advantage of the benefits of the life of luxury.
We sat for a few hours and enjoyed snacks, drinks, watching Cairo and soaking up the sun.  The 75 degree, clear skies didn't really feel like Christmas but it sure was fun and memories will last for many Christmas' to come.
There were fun activities for kids around the pool.  Cairo made this T-shirt.
Cairo LOVED being the only one of the kids who wanted to come to the hotel. (The boys wanted to stay home and play with the toys Santa brought.) She challenged Brad to a pool side game of chess.
