Spring break fun

Vacation's over and I'm aching all over. Our first stop was Great Wolf Lodge in Traverse city and we had a really great time at the indoor waterpark.


I felt like a monkey crossing the lilly pad path. I used muscles I never thought I had trying to hold on to dear life. My arms were sore the next day, it was a pain putting a shirt on. But it was worth it. I felt renewed.

Next stop was Mackinac Island. Crossing the bridge was really cool. The total length of the bridge is about 5 miles and connects Michigan's two peninsulas. It's about 950 feet longer than the Golden gate bridge.







The scenery is breath taking and the kids enjoyed hanging out by the bay. It was getting late and we missed the last scheduled ferry ride of the day. Steve and I were contemplating on what to do next and we came up with a very spontaneous idea. We packed the kids back in the SUV and decided to head down South to Frankenmuth, a german town known for its historic hotels. It was 3 hours away but a trip well worth it. We were making hotel reservations in the vehicle as we approached town.







ahhhhh. Made me miss Germany. Good thing mom will be here soon. How about you? How did you spend spring break or lent (whatever the case maybe)?
