Default back from the dells with pics (56k warning)

wisconsin dells that is...just got back a couple hours ago, and i thought id let you see some pics of what we did..

we took a tour of the wisconsin river on two boats, first in a land/water vehicle called a DUCK, check it out, they are very cool, and were actaully used in WW2

we also toured on a 900 hp, 2 450 hp chevy big blocks, JET boat...it was crazy fast, with a prop in the back and front, he could do a turn on a dime at 45mph. he would also throw it in reverse at 45, and it caused a HUGE wave to go over the front, soaking everyone, me included. didnt dare whip out the camera during that though. but we did stop a couple times, heres the pic



there were a ton of tourist traps there, and the one we got our money took on the most was the "TOP SECRET" building, it was $12.95/person and all you do is walk through a scary thing for 10 min....

its the capital upside down

I was there with my wife, kid, and a friend of hers, end of June. It was a pretty nice time. I hadn't been there for 15 or so years, it was amazing how much it had changed.

We spent a day at the Noah'* Ark water park. That was great, the kids playing in the wave pool, and the wife and I were sitting at the bar having cold beers and nachos. Mmmmmm!! Plus the park was kept very nice and clean, I would recommend that to anyone. I usually don't care for that kind of thing, and I even enjoyed it. Some fun water slides and tube rides.

Also went to the Mount Olympus go-kart track. Rode roller coaters and go karts all night.
Another nice park, but the carts really seemed to get tired and slow towards the end of the day. Suppose it was from running all day long and getting warm. It was great fun at first, but was very frustrating by closing time.

I couldn't convince the girls that the ducks would have been fun. I remember liking them when I was there as a kid. Pretty much the same story for the jet boats, they weren't interested.

Ha, we were almost going to go to Top Secret on our way out of town, but ended up blowing money in the shops instead. I was curious what it was about. From the description, I guess I'm kinda glad we missed it.

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing!
