Beth got us four tickets to the Mt. Olympus water park in Wisconsin Dells, which seemed like a larger version of Branson. It was basically a series of water park resorts all in a long strip of land near the lake. Each resort was relatively small by itself, but every single place on the road had a novelty statue at the very least, and many places had indoor water slides.<\/p>\n<p>Mt. Olympus was a bit smaller than I expected. We pretty well covered the whole park in just a couple hours. The water slide lines were mostly annoying, and it was pretty hot outside to add to the discomfort. The wave pool was small and tubeless, so you weren&#8217;t even allowed to swim out past where you could touch the bottom. I think we all really had the most fun climbing around the kid&#8217;s area where they had a couple tubeless slides and tons of random water falling everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>After the park, we went back to Beth&#8217;s place to pick up what the girls had forgotten, and then we took Beth and Bryan out to dinner. It was a bit of a drive to Olive Garden, but I&#8217;m an expert at multi-lane interstate driving now. Dinner was pretty good, and afterward we had birthday cake for Eaddie and Beth back at her condo.<\/p>\n<p>That wrapped up our evening in Wisconsin. We packed up most everything when we got back to the hotel, and we&#8217;ll head to Chicago in the afternoon. Hopefully Chi-Town will treat us at least as well as Madison.<\/p>\n<p><em>Did you find your retainer?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was finally water park day.
