Nickelodeon Punta Cana Pt 3

More and more pictures of our fun trip! 


Infinity pools over looking the ocean. Ahhh so relaxing. 

The weather was awesome when we went. We had one cloudy day but the rest of the days were sunny bright and hot! 
SPF 50 was lathered on us all! 


Lots of cold icy drinks needed

Ha or just cover yourself with sand and hide from the sun heehee


Let's talk about this foam party haha

The nightly entertainment was awesome. They had 2 different areas with entertainment. One for kids and one for adults. Both were very good. 

One night was a foam party in the lazy river. It was crazy! Baby M was terreified so only MR M and little K went in. 



 


 So much fun! 


I bought a waterproof case for my iPhone. Little K was obsessed! He was making so many videos swimming with it. 
When we first got to our swim up suite, little k needed his floaties because it's a bit deep for him. But by the end of the week he was a pro and swimming back wall to wall on his own and he was soo proud! 

Baby M hated his floaties and wanted to follow big brother on swimming on his own. Ha! Oh boy. He can't wait to get swimming lessons.



 



 
 This trip was for our 10 year wedding anniversary. So of course we did a beach photo shoot! 

These pictures are from my iPhone. The real ones are still on the CD!

Nickelodeon Punta Cana pt2

The one thing I love about vacations, especially resort vacations is the no schedules! No alarm clocks. Letting the day guide you. Just relax and have fun! No cooking no cleaning ahh can I go back!


Some mornings we went out for breakfast, other mornings we ordered room service and spent the morning in our swim up pad. We just did whatever we felt like that day! 

The restaurants at this resort are a 5+. We enjoyed the food and the vibes. They were beautifully decorated sheek and modern. Never crowded and never any line ups. 

Our favorite day time stop was the cafe. 
Lattes and donuts yum! 



 Other restaurants indclued the Brgrsph
For the yummy machete burger!!!


A huge burger that is shared. 

 Wok wok was so very good too! We got sushi, and pad Thai and Mahi mahi fish.

Spacewalker was pretty cool restaurant too, kids loved taking pictures with this astronaut


Oh and I can't forget the big beach party they had with the most delicious food! And awesome party! 






 One night The Mr and I even got to have a romantic candle light dinner on the beach. The kids went to the Just Kidn daycare which was awesome. An indoor playground. They had fun and we had a wonderful anniversary dinner. 

The service was outstanding and our romantic dinner menu was soo good!




Ok enough about food! How about all the super fun things we did!


 Aqua park was definitely a fun place to be. Lazy river, water slides, drinks in the pool. Nickelodeon character visits daily!














And SLIME FUN! 

So daily they do a draw and pick 10 rooms that will be slimed that day. Our room got picked on our 5th day!
Little K decided he would pull the lever instead of sitting with us. Poor baby am wasn't impressed.



 Daily at 3pm they have the water park slime. Which everyone loved ha! 





Everyday was so much fun. To be continued!

Great Wolf Lodge Niagara

We had an amazing weekend at Great Wolf Lodge!




This was our first time there. We heard great reviews from family and friends so we now know why! It's so much fun!

We booked for 2 nights, 1 paw pass ($64) and the meal package that was an extra $125 for our family. 



Hmm where to begin! 

Check in is at 4pm but you can get there earlier at 1pm to enjoy the water park. So we did that. Although without a room we needed to get a locker in the water park for all our clothes/shoes/purse. 
That was fine tho. We then spent 4 hours splashing around. (We ate lunch before getting there so our tummies were full) 


We went on water slides and spent a lot of time in the pool and wave pool, ohh and we loved the lazy river too!

 Since we had the food package we went to our room washed up quickly and went to the buffet dinner. Which had everything! Ribs, chicken, pasta, chilli, fries, pizza, the list goes on. Yummy  dessert too. 


Although the water park is open 9am-9pm , we spent the evening going through the paw pass items, spent time in the arcade and had fun with story time and dance party in the lobby!

Story time was really cute and interactive for the kids. 


The dance party too, baby M was busting his moves haha



The paw pass was really neat. Little K loved going around crossing off the items on the pass. 

Like making a stuffy. You can pick which stuffy you like and stuff it! We got a dragon of course. Little K stepped on the peddle to stuff it! Funnier when he stepped on the peddle when she was done and all the fluff went flying in her face. Oops
They fell in love with this dragon, 
Which we brought around with us everywhere after that! 


Oh the ears is one item too, which I wore the whole weekend.



 They also got a wand for the magi quest game. 


Which they loved. Walking around the lodge opening treasure or pointing at a painting that came to life. 2 floors of interactive fun with that wand. 


They also got another gift and they chose  light up sunglasses, with the paw pass they got a fudge bar, 20 credits for the arcade, 2 bowling games and some crafts in  the cub house and a 5x7 photo. 

My boys loved the arcade, of course! We spent hours each day in there. Haha

Ok fine, I love the arcades too ha! 








 We got the kid camp room with bunk beds. 

The kids had their own tv they watched from the bunks. 

The room was nice, clean and comfy. 

We brought some snacks and water from home so we could have snacks in the evening when we were back in our room. 


The next day we used our meal plan for the breakfast buffet. It was a little busy, more than the dinner buffet so the line was a bit long for impatient kids. The lunch was good, we got chicken fingers, hotdogs and burgers and brought it back to our room after the morning swim.


 The last dinner we had there we wanted to make the most of our evening and not spend much time in the buffet. So we ordered a pizza and brought it back to our room to eat before heading out to the evening events. They pretty much have all that you need there. Prices are pretty good I think. Not overpriced. They had a good cafe too for that much needed latte us parents need. 

We saw others go out and bring back Tim hortons coffee and donuts , it's just around the corner. As are other restaurants /fast food. But it was freeezing so we loved that we could just stay in the lodge and have everything we need. 

Sunday morning after breakfast we also spent some time winding down at the cubs corner. Kids colored and played.




 We called ourselves the Wolfpack all weekend and we had a blast.
