When Fun in The Sun Turns to Rain: Games and Ideas for Rainy Days Spent In the Hotel Room

• To get rowdy: Try a game from Wildpartygames.com. I have tried Wheel of Intoxication and found myself performing a cheer and pushing a bottle across the room with my nose among other embarrassing stunts.
  
  
• To get silly: Pictionary is always a favorite game and after a few glasses of wine every picture comes out looking like a part of the male anatomy.
  
  
• A new favorite: The 80's Game or The 90's Game. Finally, a trivia game I know most of the answers to.
  
  
• The Chick Game® is the latest must-have item for a hip girls' night out! This conversation game encourages women to reminisce about lost loves, analyze complex family relationships, discuss the ups and downs of their friendships, reveal their quirks, re-live high school and college memories, and dish the dirt. Its 222 questions range from the more serious, "Have you ever disapproved of a friend's spouse or boyfriend?" to the more frivolous, "What's the most important item in your make-up bag?"
