Wisconsin Dells!

So once again, I am late in posting what's up with the Weiss family....but last weekend, we went to Wisconsin Dells!   We went with Grandma and Grandpa and Amy.  Daddy had to work. 

 

We had all kinds of fun there.  First up, we traveled to Baraboo to see Circus World Museum.  I haven't been there since I was a kid but I totally have a pic with this very elephant from when  was little!

 

We saw a magic show and a circus too!  It even had elephants.  They did some tricks.

 

This is some gorilla that used to be in the circus.

 

There is a lot of history behind this place because this is the place where Ringling Brothers Circus started.  There  are all these old buildings where they set up camp during the winter to store animals and practice new tricks and acts.

 

Here is one of those buildings.

 

The next day we went to this Timbavati Wildlife Park.  It's new there.

 

We got to climb that tower behind the kids.

 

Here we are at the top.

 

They had all kinds of animals there.  A lot of them we don't have here at our zoo.

 

They had some tigers.

 

And the cutest baby zebra!

 

We fed the goats.

 

We got to pet the camels.

 

But I think the best part was we got to feed this giraffe.

 

They LOVE carrot sticks so we bought a cup to feed them.

 

Even Bub was brave enough to feed it.

 

Gracie and I even took a ride on a camel.

 

After that, we went to one of my fav places in the Dells....Noah's Ark waterpark!  I loved this place when I was younger.  We'd go for the whole day and just ride the slides and swim all day long.  The kids liked the wave pool.

 

They had a couple of kiddie areas there too.

 

I'm glad they provide life jackets for the the little ones.

 

One day we went and hung out at Pirates Cove and played the park, drove some go-karts, and jumped on a big bouncy pillow.

 

One of the best parts of our trip though was the super cool waterpark inside our hotel. We stayed there a  couple of years ago and the kids loved it.  It's geared towards younger kids so it was perfect.

 

They have little water slides.  I liked them.

 

Gracie and Evie liked them too.

 

One morning we also got up early to eat at Paul Bunyan's.  It's been there forever and they have the yummiest donuts ever!

 

We also ate at Mousejaw too.  They have really good pizza.

 

Oh, and even Grandpa got in on the water action.  

It was a fun time and we are already planning our winter trip there!
