It’s been a bit of a whirlwind the last few days. On Tuesday we got up and drove into a Jellystone an hour or so out of Chicago. We decided to take a day off and chill in the campground there. No pictures, no schedules, nothing to do except have fun. The boys swam, played games with the staff, swam, played candy bingo, swam, and played with mom and dad.
We got up the next day and headed into Chicago. In Chicago we went to the Field Museum.
We broke for a Chicago Dog lunch overlooking the lake. They know how to make a hot dog for sure!
We finished up what we could at the Field Museum.
Johnny found a sink his size!
We paid extra for the Jurassic World experience. The boys all had a great time. There were even props from the movie!
Jude was scared to death but had a great time seeing the enormous life-like dinosaurs. We went to get the Chicago Deep Dish and then headed home.
So ended the day… but not really.
We decided to go on to a halfway point to get closer to Cedarpoint. What we forgot to check for was the time zones… We pulled in to the Amish Cabin and RV park at 1:30 after fighting traffic. Then woke up and started again. Its a good thing they have coffee out here!
There were horse and buggy warning signs all over the place and the variety of buggies was impressive. I had no idea they had so many versions. Some were tanks on carriage wheels!
At this point the kids were nuts, they were so excited to go the Cedarpoint, “The Rollercoaster Capital of the World!”
And now for the least flattering pictures of our trip…
and then there was me…
sigh… In all honesty it was scary…
and this sucker was fast and into a tunnel with a bright flash… and did I mention fast?
