Swimming, Hotel and Fun

My grand doll loves to swim and she loves to go to hotels. She enjoys traveling, which is a huge plus as I do as well. She has asked for several weeks now to go to a hotel and go swim, but no one had taken the initiative to take her, so Mammaw made plans.

Just happens that my daughter used to work at a couple of local hotels and I know one of the managers well. I contacted her to see if she had any promotions going on or what kind of deal I could get. She said she would send me a link to use at a good discount, so I said sure. I wanted to go mid week to avoid the crowd and she stated that she was rather slow currently, so I decided it was a good decision to go ahead and make the plans.

We did not travel far ( less than 20 miles) but it was still a trip to a hotel to a young one and she got to swim. A deal and a happy little one - SCORE FOR ME!!!! We loaded up yesterday and went before her mom ever got off work and we were in the pool within an hour of checking in. ( Now, I do not swim and I do not like water, so that is a big deal for me.) Another plus, we had the pool all to ourselves. I was a mean shark, a nice shark, and her friend shark all in a matter of 60 minutes and did she ever have fun!

She does a decent job of swimming, but she is required to keep her life jacket on as long as it is her and I because I can't swim. It has taken a lot of work just to get me to go into a pool and I don't like to be splashed in the face which she is learning quickly. I feel as though I am unable to breathe when it happens. 

I must say that the hotel was very clean and the staff were extremely friendly! It made for a very nice and relaxing stay. I will be writing a trip advisor review on this hotel and it will be rated very high along many areas. I am extremely impressed with the entire place. 

It was a nice break, although short, from the daily work around here and we may plan another day away soon for the two of us. Her mom came and stayed this time, but it might just be us the next time. We are both tired, but it was fun. Swimming wears her out and was asleep by 7:30 last night. Woke at 5 a.m. this morning and feel asleep on the way home around 12:30 p.m. and is currently enjoying quite a nice nap. Giving me a chance to catch up here and spend a little quiet time following the last day with her. 

If you are ever in the Taylorsville, IN area, I highly suggest the Comfort Inn along US 31 in Edinburgh/Taylorsville. There is a nice outlet mall and several restaurants within walking distance and you will enjoy a clean and friendly hotel.
