Day 56

Sunday in Wisconsin...

Today we went to the Wisconsin Dells. It is a city much like Branson, MO except instead of saloons and shows, there are waterparks.

I'm not kidding - indoor waterparks, outdoor waterparks, big, small, high, low, fast, slow....you name it, they've got it.

Clay was taking us to a popular waterpark called Noah's Ark. This happens to be the largest waterpark in the world, boasting the single longest waterslide in the world called "The Black Anaconda."

Anna and I went down that one, it was fun, and then several others. Clay, Kristen, Anna, Lily, and me would take turns standing in the long lines and going down the crazy slides. There was one particular slide called the "Point of No Return"

This slide is one that just drops just straight down. You lay on your back, way way way up in the sky, and just drop. No one else wanted to attempt it, so I went alone. There was no line - no one else in the park wanted to attempt it either.

Holy smokes, it was so fast, straight down, my stomach just shot up into my throat. It was worth it though!!

We had lunch under the trees outside the park, and then took Lily to the baby pool. Of course she loved it!

After most of the day had passed, clay took us down to the river and went fishing for about an hour. He caught a small Bass, but the beauty of the woods enough to keep me happy.

We then went to a small Pizza place where I tried Anchovies for the first time....they were salty.

My favorite snack in the world, Wisonsin Cheese Curds, were our dinner munchies as I cleaned house in a game of Scrabble late that night.

Another great day! However, the weekend is ending and Anna and I have a long drive back home and a long week of work on Time Trails ahead of us...
