The Hot Pools story can wait. We have to deal with the "Old Geezer" meeting first. The chairman " Swain " was missing and so was Eli ( actually his name is Elliott ) was also missing so the topic was very mild.
Somehow we got on the topic of aircraft and Bob #1 is an Engineer, a Commercial pilot , retired and a real dedicated fisherman , and a good one as he has a Fishing Lodge in N. Ontario. So he educated us on different Aircraft that he flew and some of the problems he encountered in his career , especially landing and takeoff incidents. However, he walked us thru the procedure when he lost one engine on a Aircraft with 4 engines which was very interesting and if I do say so. At least it was more interesting than the normal B. S. we have most mornings.
Now for the Hot Pools; The hot pools are located 36 KM from Guayabitos however it takes 1 1/2 hours to reach them by road so you can imagine what type and condition of the roads we had to travel over.
There are 31 hot pools, and are an attraction for the Snowbirds in this area. When we arrived there where about 20 people there and there was another 30 people arrived while we were there. There was 8 of us. Beside having a few beer , most folks either bring a picnic lunch or like us bring a Bar-B-Q and to cook some hamburgs and hotdogs. Each pools holds about 6 to 10 pers and the temperature varies in each pools. It was a great experience and I'm sure we will do a return trip the next time we are in Guayabitos.
Now we had to return to our Park by 5 PM as one couple ( Lou and Becky ) hosted a supper for the entire park. The had , what they called a " Good Luck " supper which was Pulled Pork, Sauerkraut and mashed potatoes. Most of us had never heard of a Good Luck supper but I can assure you we all showed up and it was great. Apparently , it is a Germany custom. cheers
