We got our kids a Wii for Christmas. Before then, I really knew nothing about Wii—and now I think I play it more than the kids. I pay a visit to the Wii Sports Resort at least a couple times a week. For a while I even had a borderline unhealthy addiction to Wii table tennis.
Obsession aside, it’s actually been a fun family bonding method for all of us during the cold weeks of winter. We pair up into teams and compete with each other in bowling, tennis, basketball, and golf. And now that the weather is finally warming up, we’re eager to step up our competition and move it a real-world venue. So come our spring trip to Gulf Shores Plantation, we’ll be challenging each other to a golf-tennis-basketball tournament.
It’s really the perfect location for this purpose—fun, friendly environment, eight tennis courts and a basketball court on the property and Kiva Dunes right next door (and several other great golf courses around the area). I’m thinking we should take advantage of the seven pools and throw in a swimming competition.
