Spent the night at Great Wolf Lodge. Our family's first time at one of these indoor water parks. Nice time had by all. Sarah had convinced me that this is what she wanted to do for her Birthday and since I am (have never and shall never be) not one for "birthday parties" I could not make a reservation here fast enough.

84 degrees, a few cold beverages, running around with these two girls who are almost teens and floating around the lazy river with my wife.

I have promised them all we'll try Kalahari next winter when cabin fever sets in. I hear it's better than this place for the water features, which surpassed my comparison to a soaking wet Chuck e Cheese.
