Water-world

31 Aug 2008 - waterworld

So yes, on the last day of summer we went to the waterworld. we = me, Anya, Asya, Alex, Vahick, Vova. I must say that the administration there sucks, because as of 16th of Aug they have made tickets more expensive - classic costs 6500 dr, while VIP cost 6000 in July! and in general they were trying to make money on practically everything, and the service was bad. which however didn't prevent us from having fun.

we swam in the pool some, took some photos, went to the slides. and there was an announcement that there is a photographer on the territory of the water-world secretly taking photos of people and that people can buy those photos. then when i go and stand in front of the slides to take photos of friends, people think i am that photographer who is not in disguise anymore. and they keep asking "did you manage to take that photo?" "did you catch that?" "was it good?" so at first i was kind of lost but then i started using it by telling people to please move aside since i'm taking a photo and they are in my way :D

then i went down the red slide, and when i reached the pool, and got out of it, the lifeguard told me: hey this hair-pin you have is very nice, please give it to me.
i looked at him and he had very short hair, so i said "sorry but where will you stick it to?" and ran away giggling.

to Anya the lifeguards said: do you always come out of the slide so beautifully?
Anya: what do you mean?
lifeguards: by splashing water at us

i think they just stayed under the sun for too long :D.

we had some pizza in between the activities, we wanted to have sandwiches, but there were flies walking on them. (yes this is black PR of the water-world)

yes and there were so very many persians all around. their english was so bad they couldn't understand anybody speaking to them even though people would repeat what they were saying and help with guestures, and would make the place dirty. One of them was wearing 'family panties' instead of the swim-trunks. the lifeguard didn't let him go down the slide and told him to change. the guy and his friends couldn't understand what "anti-hygiene" means. then the persian guy went and changed into the swim-trunks. question: if he had them, why didn't he put them on at once??? Like Alex told us, at the dresser there was a lady who was pissed off by the persians and she entered the men's room while there were men changing and yelled at the persians "how many times do i have to repeat to bring baskets to my desk? you are soooo dumb! why are you coming to our country? get out of here!" and well a furious elderly woman can be very scary and dangerous :D

then Anya, Vova and Vahick started jumping from bungee jump (tarzanka). the rest were having fun watching them. and taking sequences of photos which you can see in that album, and please pay attention to Vova's shadow in those photos :D

then we the girls pretended to be mermaids, and made Alex and Vahick take some photos of us. then we went to the slides again and the water-world was practically empty so we could slide down without waiting in que. that was cool.

then we got dressed and left because the water-world was closing :)
