After being in the car for a while we decided to head to the hotel. The kids said they were hungry and it was way past lunch time so as we exited the freeway to the hotel....the PINK Hotel was in front of us......gotta check it out so here is our visit to the Madonna Inn. I had looked at the rooms to see if we wanted to stay here but the jungle, cave, horse and so many others just made it seem like a kinky place to stay for your anniversary or some other couple event.....thought it might seem weird to go with the kids. After visiting the coffee shop, I think we made a good decision. Here are the kids at the front garden area near the coffee shop.

Everything here is very Pink which delighted Savannah! The flowers were well groomed and lots of people seem to enjoy eating and looking around.

Ponds and flowers......

Inside the lobby. Look at the carpet!!! It was very loud but again if you are 3 you think it is BEAUTIFUL!!! This was near the fireplace in the lobby.

Where we ate lunch......

The worlds moste extreme men's bathroom. Kyle and Clark had seen this on the travel channel so that was another reason for our visit. They love to check off places they have seen on t.v. that they want to visit. I'm surprised we didn't hit a few diners, drive-ins and dives too! We decided to go on this trip too quickly for them to do more research! Lots of ladies were going in here and checking it out too!

Savannah and I checked out the ladies room too. A little too over the top again but the Princess LOVED it!! She wanted to know if we could get her bathroom at home to look like this....okay? No!

Kyle wanted me to take a picture of the weird doll/lady that was swinging in the fake wisteria.

The booths and flowers and lights and oh yah check out that carpet once again! This was a dinner/bar place.

Same carpet on the stairs! They must have this specially made for them or they got a great price on it!!

Pink sugar and napkins at the coffee shop! Very pink!!!

Savannah giving a big thumbs up to her Pink cake! It is Pink Champagne cake and came with huge chocolate ribbons. Notice the goblets on the table. We must have had 6 different colors and both of the kids were so excited about these. Clark and I just laughed at irredescent colors and gaudy roses on them. Kyle even asked if we could buy some to take home....luckily I came up with the quick mom answer of "I don't think they will fit in the dishwasher or the cupboards"....saved me there but I think someday he might have this sort of gaudy glassware in his house!!

Not sure that she wanted to share with Daddy or anyone else. Put this picture in to show she is getting my squinty eye! My dad always says I got it from his Grandma Rose but I think I am passing it on to Savannah!

We ended up taking over half of this back to the hotel and I caught Kyle watching Project Runway and eating the rest of it the next night!

Don't worry we let Kyle get some too! This is the Black Forest. He wanted a cream puff and while we were waiting for our food he walked to the take out bakery and saw them. We did not order til after we ate and someone came in and bought them all up. He settled for this and Clark encouraged him since he wanted to try this.
It was a fun stop for us and nice to get a huge meal and dessert. We actually skipped dinner and got a snack at Taco Bell about 10 o'clock that night. Yep, vacation means eating and enjoying! After driving around and eating and checking out more sites the kids and Clark went down to the pool to relax while I organized our stuff and looked to see if we should add anything to our next day!
