Wisconsin Dells trip, day 8 (Sat, Aug 11)

We tried going to Mr Pancake for breakfast, but it was crazy crowded. We went a couple doors down, and there was even a wait there, but only 15 mins or so. David ordered pancakes, plus an extra two pancakes and - get this - he could NOT finish them! Holy cow! They were fluffy pancakes. The food was good, and we then walked back to the hotel. We all laid on the bed and I fell asleep for like 2 hours! Apparently the kids and David played "doors" on their iPhones that whole time.

When I woke up, we decided to go bowling at Knucklehead's. But when we got there, the kids decided on the rides, etc instead. Good call. And we were able to get the wristbands buy one, get one free. Megan did the ropes course, they both did the pillow again, Megan tried the 4D ride. Megan did the roller coaster by herself because Cameron was too short. There was no wait on anything, even though it was a Saturday, probably because the weather was nice. The kids also played on the outdoor inflatables, an indoor helicopter ride, and Megan went on the Tornado.

We drove down to see if we could Parasail, but there was a wait. So we put our name down, and then headed back into the city. When we got back, we had a little bit of a wait anyway, and David buried Cameron in the sand. Megan and I worked on a crossword puzzle, and we took a few cute pictures before getting on the boat. Parasailing was fun, it was so quiet up there. Megan and I could talk to each other the whole time. She started out on my lap, and as we got higher and higher, I told her "You're not going to be able to stay on my lap much longer. You're going to come off, but it will be okay." She said "It will?" The minute when she came off my lap was a little frightening, but of course everything was fine.

We went back to the hotel, grabbed a quick dinner, and then went to see Rick Wilcox's magic show. Megan and I drove, and Cam and David walked. The show was pretty good, it kept the kids amused. After the show, off to bed for our last night in the Dells.
