Welcome to summer time in Texas! What happens when, water balloons, refreshing drinks in coconuts, volleyball, pool (as in billiards), music, food, friends, a game pool, hot tub, and multi-level swimming pool all come together? The biggest, and baddest party around! A luau to be exact, this year's party took place in far north Dallas, and was hosted by the queen of partying. With gathering friends, luau shirt, and lei on hand the party took off.
The night started off in the clubhouse, with drinks, and food being passed around. Everyone was enjoying themselves as conversations with new, and old friends took center stage for the start of the evening. I played some team pool, and won beating the ladies, haha! Actually they were winning until the last turn when I sunk our last three balls, then finished the game off by knocking the eight ball in. I basked in my winning ability as I lost three straight arm wrestling matches, yeah I lost, so what.
As everyone settled in, and loosened up things began happening, and it was fun. Water balloons just started flying, and there were plenty of them to go around. I finally had to go out to my car, and switch into my swim suit. The balloon war continued to escalate until a cease fire was called, but only due to no ammunition being left after the great war.
The water balloons were being held in a rubber dingy, which began the next part of the evening. Me, and a buddy first launched the dingy into the game pool, but that didn't last to long, as we soon moved over to the multi level pool. After floating around for a bit we decided to take the dingy over the great waterfall, from the top pool to the bottom pool. OK so it wasn't really this great waterfall, it was actually a 2 level fountain that drained the top pool to the bottom pool, but it was sure fun trying to get that dingy to go over, and we did it. eventually we decided that we should get an ore, and were told where one was. With ore in hand the dingy became a gondola as we invited some of the ladies out for a ride. Some of which were brave enough to come aboard, and enjoy the company on board. Oopsie, at one point my ship buddy swam to the side of the pool where a couple of ladies were in chase by another one of the guys. You may of already guessed it, but all three of them came into the pool, clothes, and all! They were cool with it though, and started playing in the pool for a time. Our next stop took the dingy to the hot tub, most of it was in the water, just not the ends. That didn't last long as we were quickly warming up, though we did give another ride to 2 more ladies. Then it was back to the great water fall, just let me call it that, it sounds way cooler. This time we had the ore, and the strategy to make it over, and it worked a lot easier. After a quick game of water volleyball it was off to the hot tub, no dingy this time. We brought some of the food out, and let the tub warm it up as we snacked the night away.
Thus was the best luau, in my opinion, so far. I wonder what's going to happen at next year's party!? Until then I'll just have to enjoy all the other upcoming events!
