What a busy day! We woke up and went to the breakfast buffet that was included in our package here, and they had everything you could think of! It was very nice! After breakfast, we played at the water park for about 3 hours. We made it around to all the areas today. The boys LOVED the slides - I think they went down them 100 times! We found a better kiddie area (all the way at the back!) and Aubryn liked that a lot better. She really seemed to enjoy herself. There was a lily pad she sat on that had a frog on it, which she kissed all on her own! (We got a picture too :)) They even had a lazy river for the babies. Eric took her down a little slide, but I don't think she liked that much.
After the water park, we came to our room to eat leftovers for lunch before heading out for ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery. It was the boys' first time (well, Aubryn too!). Aeson got cotton candy ice cream with chocolate chips, and Westen got chocolate ice cream with Butterfingers, Oreos, and sprinkles.
After ice cream, we went to Wizard's Quest. It was the one thing not included in our package, but we thought the boys would like it. You enter a magical world where you have to find (save) four wizards in four different realms- earth, water, fire, and wind. We found the first two pretty quickly, the third not as quickly, and had to ask for a hint with the last one! There were mirrored rooms, revolving bookcases, walls that were doors, mazes, tunnels, a tree the kids could climb up, etc! It was pretty cool!
We then went on the Ducks boat tour, which was VERY cool. Wisconsin is absolutely beautiful, so it was nice to see it. The tour guide was funny, and there were lots of interesting things to hear about. Aeson and Aubryn both fell asleep! Aeson didn't until about halfway through, though, and he really liked why he saw. He mentioned after that it was "pretty awesome!" We saw several deer on the land part of the tour.
After that, we went to the Tommy Bartlett Show, which included water ski tricks, clowns, boats, and jugglers. Westen really loved it, but it was kind of long (90 minutes) and we were all freezing! The looks on Westen's face when they did some of the tricks were priceless, though!
Finally, we stopped at Buffalo Phil's for dinner, where our food and drinks were delivered by train. All the kids loved it there too!
We didn't get back to the hotel until after 8, I think. Only left time for baths and some relaxation before bed!
