The place we stayed at was called the Desert Oasis, and it wasn't too shabby. It had a little kitchenette, so we did some grocery shopping so we wouldn't be eating out the whole time. We learned later that the hotplate didn't work as well as a stove, so some of our meals took twice as long to cook. But overall it was a very nice, fancy place and we enjoyed it a lot.
There was a small pool just outside our room. It was more private and didn't allow alcohol so the partiers stayed away. (not like there were any partiers anyways)
One night they had a movie night at the pool. I made Chris take me down just for a few minutes to see.
We spent a lot of time at the pool during the day to cool off.
The larger pool had a giant waterfall into the pool.
There was also a roof-less cave where the hot tub was. There were cactus's up above, that was kinda funny.
We brought our swim shirts for good measure. We DID NOT want to get sunburnt, and we were successful.
So... The place was wonderful. But one night, after crawling into bed (Chris was still walking around) I noticed THIS on Chris's side of the bed! I couldn't even speak well enough to tell him what it was. I was FREAKING out. He obviously noticed something was wrong (I had already flown out of the bed by this point) and he started walking towards the bed. All I could say was "don't touch the covers!". The scorpion was kinda hidden between folds, and I didn't want him to get stung. Chris didn't really want to squish it with his fingers and tissue like how he usually kills bugs, so he cut it in half with scissors. My scorpion-killing hero. I definitely had scorpion dreams that night.
