Hey Martin Family! I am still loving your blog! Keep it up! It looks like you guys are having a blast, too. :)
I was wondering if you would share with me how much it was to buy tickets to Mt. Olympus in Wisconsin Dells? How did you buy them? The website only talks about staying in one of their hotels? Any info on this would SOOO helpful.
Thanks,
Steph
