Rod & Mary - January, 2003

Travel Dates 01/08/03 thru 01/16/03  Hedonisim III

This was our third trip to Hedo, but our first trip report.  We enjoy reading other people's reports so thought it was time to add our comments. Thanks Denny for the web site that makes it possible.

 Once we arrived in MoBay our connection to the Hedo bus was the fastest ever.  Last year we took a private ride, but we don't recommend it.  We made it to the resort in 1.5 hours even though it was raining and slowed us up a bit. We made a stop at the "Last Chance" for beer, and once for fuel.

Once we got to the resort, we were able to upgrade to a better room, since we had purchased the "run of the house" and were returning for the third time.  We had to wait for our room, which we did at the hot tub and ordered "dirty bananas". Took about an hour and we were all set. We loved our view from the second floor of the 600 building.

As always, the interaction with the other guests is what makes Hedo fun!  Right away Rick & Caroline and John & Janet decided we needed more action and got the hot tub spiced up. They were famous for that! We missed them when they left. Tom and Carol Ann nominated Rod to be the acting mayor and welcoming committee for the orientation tours that came through. You should have seen the look on some of the first timers when they got a nekkid hug.  For some it was all the orientation they needed and they came back up to join us.  We were happy to see the rest of the "Dirty Banana" group came in on Saturday.  Phil and Jen got the tattoo session going and inducted a few new members. I managed to apply a few tattoo's myself- Great interaction time!

We missed Crazy Sean and Carol this year.  Romeo, Teddy Bear, Petrina, Lisa and Lust and Dutch filled in nicely and kept us entertained.  We missed the sing-along books in the piano bar.  Glen was as good as ever! He saw lots of "Pie". Bob- the singing cowboy from Montana had an awesome voice and even filled in for Glen at the piano for a short while. Supposedly, the new books are going to be there "tomorrow".  Sterling with his bottomless Champagne bottle and his clever wit, had us in stitches most of the time. (He also gave wonderful massages at the pussy fountain! Thanks!)

The resort was not full by any means. Probably around 60%, with the exception of the day pass people that came in hoards on the weekend.  Most of the day passers were single, horny men. It was a little intimidating to go to the hot tub Sat. night.  The moon was nearly full, so the hammocks were in full "swing" and the PDA's on the beach and piers were numerous.

There were a few cut backs we noticed from previous visits.  At least they still had lobster on Monday night, even though it had rained and they had to have the beach party at the main dining room.

We missed the raft on the nude beach.  Thanks Tim and Serena for bringing rafts for the nude pool, and Jake and Tracy for the bar service floatie.

Roger and Sharon- Thanks for the happy medicine when we were feeling bad about not extending our trip. You two are the best!
Note- we asked about extending our stay the day we checked in.  It took them 7 days to get back to us with a rate that was ridiculously high for a half empty resort! (We had inquired several  times) Since we had already started packing and getting in the mode of leaving, we were a bit miffed with the resort taking so long to get back to us.

We really missed Danny and Lauren and the other dirty banana's that couldn't make the trip this year.  Hopefully,  next January will be a good reunion for old and new "Dirty Banana's"
