It is so fun to see things come full circle. Growing up we would have Klendworth getaways at various locations around the U.S. with our extended family. We decided to start our own traditions with my brothers, sister, mom, and their growing families.
March 11-13th we set off for Dubuque, Iowa to spend the weekend at the Grand Harbor Hotel. Its big attraction is the indoor waterpark. We had a lot of fun and are looking forward to our own "Klendworth" getaways.
Hannah, Chloe, and Ayden enjoyed playing in the sleeping tent. Chloe was the only one to actually sleep in it. Hannah wanted to sleep in her Grandma's bed.
Hannah and Ayden had such a fun time playing together. We wish that we lived closer and they could see each other more often!
Chloe tried her best to keep up with the girls, but they were too fast for her little legs.
This is the water slide that goes outside the hotel. It is VERY dark and fast. Hannah and Ayden both went down it. I don't think either of them were too impressed :)
Here is Hannah with her daddy coming out of the big slide. The other slides were a little bit more their style.
Water, Water Everywhere!!! There were two slides on the back of this, but you had to go through a lot of different obstacles to get there. Both Hannah and Chloe went down the slides. We even got Grandma to go down them!!
Hannah had fun riding the giant snake.
On Saturday late morning, we decided to take a break from the waterpark and ventured to the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium. It was literally right across the street from the hotel.
There was an interactive children section that the kids could do various water activities including building levies.
Hannah loved the alligator outside of the gift shop. She called it Rajah (after the tiger in Aladdin). She did not want to leave him. She even gave him kisses before we left.
How mean!
