The Frozen Niagara area at the end of this tour was spectacular. It was worth all the steps and walking to get there.
We parted company and went to lunch while they all headed back to the motel to swim. At 5:00 the kids were brought back to the park and we took them to see Monster U followed by a trip to McDonald's for them. Ted had a cone while they ate but I didn't order anything. Our lunch had been about 2:30 and I wasn't hungry.
While we had the kids Bill and Kara took his friends and their wives to dinner. I am sure they enjoyed their time out with just adults.
After we came back to the park, they came for the kids and took our laundry back with them. They have access at night to the commercial laundry at the motel and said they would do what I had. We have nine days worth plus the bedclothes so it will be a big help.
Not sure what is up for tomorrow. We have storm warnings for tonight and it has started raining. We will regroup in the morning

Got caught up tonight - looks and sounds like you had a great reunion - tons of fun and lots of family time. Dan and I did Mammouth Cave about six years ago (before our time on the road) - I think I would like to do the new entrance (but I don't know if Dan could handle it). So, where are you off to next?
