Wisconsin Dells trip

 
This past week the family went to Wisconsin Dells just for a get away for 4 days 5 nights.  The first hotel that we stayed at was Chula Vista.  

From our house to the hotel took about 3 hours and 22 minutes to get there.  I must admit that Abby did a great job on her fist road trip, even at 5 1/2 months.   Chula Vista reminds me of the outdoors.  It has foxes,deer, geese and antelope among with other wild life you may find.  

The wave pool was a lite ways down from he indoor watermark along with the outdoor and beach setting.  The kids loved the wave pool except for Abby.  But I will give her some time to get use to it.  Over all our stay was great for the first 2 1/2 days.  


Our next day stay was at Kalahari.  The resort was something you would want to stay a day or two.  The view from out room was ok,  but the sites that we saw was nice .  When you walk into the lobby,  there was 2 baby tigers that were about 3 to 4 months old and you got to take pictures with them if you wanted to.  Along with the tigers was a baby kangaroo that you could get a photo with also.  

There was also a indoor theme park that was open to the public as well as the guests staying at the resort.  From riding on a 8 story Ferris wheel to bowling on the second floor.  Samantha,Zack and Emma had a blast bowling and the scores to all 3 games were a little close.  But most of all the 3 older kids loved the go carts. 

The last 2 nights we stayed at was the Wilderness resort.  And I must admit the resort is pretty huge.  There are about 4 indoor and 2 outdoor water parks plus mini golf and laser tag.  All 6 of us has our work out since we did all the water parks and took a break to rest out of the water for a few with Abby.  Yes it is the Dells is known to be the water park capital of the world.  Everyone had a lot of fun playing and enjoying the vacation.  Thursday night we took time to go to downtown Dells to shop for sweatshirts for the older kids.  
But being home and looking forward to another week of work is what I am looking forward to.
