2 Words: culture shock.

While swimming at the resort, something happened that REALLY bothered me.



James and I were outside in the spa (hot tub) but decided to go in since hot water isn't a good idea for prolonged periods of time. There were probably about 40 other people in the pool-mostly in the shallow end-so James and I stayed in the deep end and out of everyone's way. We were watching a nice black family playing and listening to their mom get onto them. (So funny!) Then we watched a large asian family of 5-6 women and just as many kids. You could tell that it was their first time at the resort and James assumed that the women borrowed their children's swimsuits. (For obvious reasons...ew.) ..And I think he was right! One boy, maybe 7 or 8 years old, stood up with a red innertube around him and he was stark nekkid! I was immediatly horrified and ready to leave. Three tours came into the pool while this kid was in the buff, yet nothing was said! It's clearly against the rules! You're really not even supposed to jump! One woman on a tour just stared. One maintanance guy laughed. I was without words!
