Finally! A weekend trip to see the Ice Castles!!!
We purchased these tickets way back in November with the hopes of visiting this venue the week of winter break or New Years Eve. With the odd & unseasonably warm temps in Nov/Dec that didn't happen. The Ice Castles didn't open until well into January once it finally got cold... and when it got cold, it got REAL cold! Yesterday we headed to Lake Geneva to see these amazing ice castles. All completely man made & placed right along the lake.
So beautiful!
The kids just loved it. Such an amazing sight to see. The sun was shining, it was still definitely cold {only about 15 degrees} but the sun shine helped. We filled our mittens & boots with hand/foot warmers which really helped keep us warm. These fun chairs made out of ice were fun for the kids. 
They also had tunnels, slides & fun little forts made out of ice for the kids to explore. I took so many photos, impossible to post them all but I couldn't stop. It was just so beautiful!
Our traveling crew... we have quite the list of adventures on our 2019 calendar. These Ice Castles were the perfect way to check off #1 on our list. 
Fun for the kids to see & the adults loved it equally as much. Only thing that would have made it a little better would have been warm cocktails! 
Once we were done, we were cold! We headed to Milwaukee for the night. Chick-Fil-A for dinner & swimming/hot tub time for the kiddos before heading home this afternoon. Quick Trader Joes & mall pit stop before we left. Fun weekend, definitely worth the wait. xoxo
