Madison and Milwaukee

We had a whirlwind trip to Wisconsin this weekend. We left Kalamazoo around 1pm on Friday and got into Madison with plenty of time to walk around and explore. We ventured to the capitol building and were able to walk around inside for a bit before it closed for the night. Then we went down to the lake front and found the Union before heading to the rooftop restaurant at the hotel for dinner. On Saturday, we explored campus, walked to Camp Randall Stadium, and took advantage of the science and engineering expo they had going on for kids. Then we met up with Julia, John, Violet, and Aunt Pat for lunch. It was so nice to see everyone and to meet little Violet. Then we went back inside the capitol before having ice cream on the terrace at the Union. Then we drove over to Milwaukee for the Cubs vs. Brewers game. Stadium #10 - it might be our favorite stadium yet! We stayed for 7 innings and then decided to get on the road to avoid the traffic from the sell-out game. It was a quick, but fun trip!
