Our fourth day at Wisconsin Dells we spent yet another day playing at Mt. Olympus / Rome Water Park, and I was wondering if we would ever grow tired of all this much fun. We found a campground & RV place across the street of Hotel Rome for $40 a night that also included free passes to the Rome amusement park. Heck-uv-a deal! So we spent two nights and did the endless amount of go-karts and roller coasters.
There are little go-karts for the little tots and it is hilarious to watch! Fionn and Liam are competitive brothers and they each got a car. Lap after lap Liam raced other drivers and paid no attention to where Fionn was. Near the end of the race, Fionn suddenly made a break from the pack and passed his older brother Liam. A fierce race of the brothers took over the track on the last lap. Weaving back and forth, they pushed and bumped each other around tight turns and straights. The track assistant pushed the curb across the track to funnel the kids into the enclosed exit lane. Both brothers raced forward trying to be the first to enter the lane. Fionn and Liam smashed full speed into the lane, which caused all the other cars to crash into the back of them. One after one they came until there was a serious pile up. Fionn’s front wheel was over the curb and they both sat there looking at each other waiting for someone to announce the winner. On lookers realized they were brothers and had a good laugh. So the race was called a tie, and the brothers still tease each other of who was the better driver.
We closed our trip with a ride on the Wisconsin Ducks and toured Lake Dalton. The Duck ride is an amphibious vehicle used in WWII that would carry soldiers on and off land / water. It was a fun and fast trip through the woods, river and lake. One cannot truly say they toured Wisconsin Dells until you have ridden the Ducks!
