Weekend Holiday

A group we belong to was offering a special weekend rate at The Wilderness Resort in Wisconsin Dells, so we took advantage of it. We've been to seven indoor waterparks since G was little, and this was the most disappointing one we've ever visited. It is poorly laid out, overcrowded, understaffed (by people who don't care about service) and not well maintained. After the first night we skipped the waterpark and looked for other things to do. (We tried to check out a day early, but they'd only refund our money in a giftcard -- believe me, we will never be returning!) Fortunately for G and me (but not Dan), the Dells is home to a Tanger Outlet. (How can you beat Gap shirts for $3.59? We'll each take one in every color!) We spent a major part of Saturday eating and shopping, then went back to our room and read until we got a second wind. G then tackled a rock wall; we ate dinner, then she tried it again. We left early Sunday but stopped in Madison on the way home and did more eating and shopping. We've got a good jump on Christmas shopping and a winter wardrobe.
