You're too late, it's over, the end. You missed summer. Along with that, if you weren't at the Metropolitan on the corner of Washington and Rosalind downtown, you missed a summer staple as well, also known as Chill Sundays. A picture's worth a thousand words, so check out the photo gallery for visuals of some hot bodies in bathing suits, but for those of you who prefer stories, read on...
Across from Lake Eola and up a flight of stairs that only a sober person could love, hides a huge pool, dozens of lounge chairs, at least three bars, a makeshift hair studio, a professional photographer snapping pictures (Jacob from Picture the Night makes a weekly appearance, and was kind enough to let Amelia and I flash on his turf) and enough blowup toys to make Fairvilla proud. Add anywhere from 50-150 people, and you've got yourself Chill Sundays, aka the Metropolitan's weekly summer pool party. Fortunately or not, the blowup toys were giant beach chairs, balls, and pool floats, but they were put to good use while live acts and a DJ entertained the masses who were waiting in line at the bar. If lounging poolside listening to music is too low key for you, several cabanas had their own mini parties, and Ego Lab, the downtown salon and retail store was there to make sure everyone stayed looking hot. The last pool party of the summer also featured a Miss Hawaiian Tropic bikini contest. I'll leave that to your imagination.
Though you have to wait an entire year to catch all the fun you missed at Chill Sundays, put it on your calendar now. To pass the time until then, of course, look out for the OCB Shock Squad flashing at Orlando's other hot spots. You can also visit Ego Lab to get your hair did and pick up a wardrobe change for when you can't make it another step in those uncomfortable 5" heels- they're open late on the weekends, and of course, check out O-Lens for video and photos from the last chill Sunday of '07. Catch me and the rest of OCB tomorrow at UCF- FREE STUFF, FREE STUFF, FREE STUFF! We'll be by the SGA courtyard from 9- noon giving away some goodies. XOXO- Dina
