Part 2: BREAKING PANDORAS BOX WIDE OPEN

its now August 2018 and we're back to our regular life in Southern California, and quite honestly haven't really thought much about our adventures in Mexico. We mused about it a few times; what if this, what if that? We talked about the group of swingers from Canada we met our last day. The playful sexual touching in the hot tub on the roof. "Was everyone there swingers?" "What would have happened if we would have gone with the 30 somethings our last night?" A few months passed and we decided to head out to the desert for some time in the sun. We love going to Palm Springs with its mineral hot springs and fun nightlife. We'd always gone to the same hotel but this time Shane suggested we find an adults only hotel with a pool. "Sure," I said, " who wants to deal with kids when you're not So off we went bathing suit and sunscreen in hand to Sea Mountain Inn in Desert Hot Springs. B had found the place and paid the fees necessary to go for the day. We still preferred to check it out on a day pass and not spend the night; choosing to sleep instead of at our regular hotel nearby. Did I mention I'm a cautious person?? So we drive up to the resort on a residential street on the outer fringe of Desert Hot Springs. I get out of the car with my floppy sun hat, bikini, and sundress, B is looking fine in his swim trunks, tight T and ever-present ball cap. We are a little excited, remembering Temptations and wondering what lay in store for us. We get buzzed in and they walk us to the lockers where we can get changed and leave any personal items. I tentatively ease out of my bikini top and leave that and my sundress in the locker. Sunblock in hand we walk to the pool. "Ahhh??? Whaaat....not only is everyone totally naked, they are all in different stages of sex. With what I can only imagine was a shocked look on our faces we quickly found lounge chairs and proceed to shimmy out of our suits and hide the prudish remnants out of site. So we took our time plastering our virgin skin with sunscreen while sneaking tentative glances around. Every body shape and age group was on full display. Some were chatting, some enjoying oral while others were pumping away. So I once again look and B; did he know this was going on? After the initial shock wore off, we decided to join the flock in the pool. OHH fresh meat coming in...The pool was crowded with at least 30 people holding their margaritas high so as to not dilute it with pool water, and whatever else was floating around in there! People were friendly and we started chatting with a couple from New York. They told us how they came to be there, FWB; "what? " Oh. Friends with benefits. My first foray into the world of acronyms; the swinger set use them constantly to describe who they are and what they are into. So they're not a couple per se but meet to have sex and since only couples are allowed into SMI they were here to play. They seemed a little bitter and kept cautioning us about the IN crowd. Yes, folks, there's jealousy amongst naked 40 something swingers. They kept eye rolling towards a group of people that were getting their party on. What to do? Hang with Debbie Downer or paddle into party central? Off we went into the belly of the beast. A super fit, tanned man with a big smile started chatting us up. We'll call him P. They were a couple from Texas and it was his wife's birthday. T was the tall blonde giving head to a guy sitting on the side of the pool. "Hey, how it going? " P asked. Not as good as your wife.....was my answer! We told him that it was our first time at SMI and didn't know what to expect, but it sure wasn't this!" Temptations had been our only experience to date. P met his wife in the lifestyle and they'd been together for years. We had so many questions and he was more than happy to share some of his experiences with us. He told us about different swinger sites we could join and a quick lesson in the lifestyle. At this point, we had a few margaritas in us and everything sounded exciting. Sex with new people and it's not cheating!!, Damn that sounds amazing! We spent our afternoon floating around the pool in awe. In a few short months, we'd gone from married with children to naked in a pool full of people having sex. I reached down and started stroking B, we began kissing and then we hear. "Can we touch?" We open our eyes to see a couple next to us in the pool prepared to stroke us while we made out. Hey, when in Rome, right? After a few minutes there were a few others that asked to join in. Lesson 1 in the lifestyle. Ask before you touch and no means no. I started to feel a bit claustrophobic so we decided to hang out for a while on the chairs and let the buzz of the margaritas fade. Feeling refreshed we decided to walk around and explore the grounds. The main pool area is surrounded by lounge chairs and beyond that doors to the different hotel rooms you can rent for your stay. Up the stairs and through a set of doors is a play area with big pillows and a stripper pole. It's dark in there but once my eyes adjusted I saw a man sitting on a chair stroking himself watching a group of people playing on the pillows. I continued walking through and went to the restroom, I waited for B but he was nowhere to be found. So I walked back through the playroom when something caught my eye. I recognize that ass! It was my husband munching down on some woman. I was so shocked I kept walking and went back to the pool and waited for him to come out. He emerged a few minutes later. " Having fun?" I asked. " Yup!" The sun was going down and the air was hot and scented with sex and suntan lotion. We hung out in the pool chatting and flirting for a while longer. We noticed a lot of people pairing off for the night and we took this as our cue to leave. Our heads spinning and our bodies humming we left for our hotel. When the door closed behind us I had a feeling of regret. I wanted to go back inside, what were we missing? Back at our room we poured a glass of wine and talked about our day and how it made us feel. We made love that night and it was amazing. To be so turned on for hours and to finally have sex made it that much more intense. The next morning driving back to LA we decided to join a swingers web site called Kasadie and open ourselves up to all the possibilities.......
