Anyway, this one has water fountains and they are done in such a way that the kids can play in them in the summer. The grass is astroturf so it doesn’t get muddy. And, best of all, the mall provides towels for the guests. I took Kyrie down there a week or so ago and she had a blast playing in all of the fountains. The just shoot up from the ground.

We didn’t stay very long for a couple of reasons so K-Bug did not get too much sun… she DID have an awesome time though.

My oldest daughter, Erin, took her three kids to play in the water with different results. I guess they stayed a bit longer than we had but the kids ended up looking like lobsters, boiled lobsters.

My favorite home remedy for sunburn is black tea. If you have burnt a small area then just steep some tea and place the bags on the burn while you sip the tea. For more all over burning float tea bags in a cool bath. Use enough to get the water a good tea color and just soak while the tannins in the tea work on healing that burn. If the burn is especially bad it may take a couple of soaks but at the very least you will be feeling better.

I know it sounds weird, but it works. Use cheap, grocery store variety black tea bags. If you get a sunburn give it a try.
