What Was That?

It was a quiet afternoon in the hotel lobby, and those of us at the desk were indulging in a bit of people watching while I thought up new trivial questions.

Then, in the front door, across the lobby, and up the escalators walks a woman holding a small flag. Actually, six women holding small flags. Accoumpanied by about 200 teenage girls, few with as much clothing as their mothers might approve of. Unlike the usual Brazilian hordes, they were quiet, and headed upstairs without commotion.

"What was that?" asked a male (and presumably straight) fellow cast member.

"That, my good man, was part of our fringe benefits," I replied.

Took a good ten minutes for the desk staff to stop giggling.

Sounds like a normal day on any Maui resort beach.

That's why they say that there's more reasons than the weather to move to Hawaii. There's also the consequences of the weather!

The Bad News: Old people who shouldn't wear too few clothes too.

Did you ever find out who they were?

Tents are up in the parking lot at HS, so my guess would be well-behaved cheerleaders.

Never mind who they are. Did you find out where they were going?

We found that out last summer at the "European" beach on St. Marrtin. The only person we saw without clothes on we referred to as "Grandma Thong". My poor poor 16 year old son was almost blinded.
