The tile/wallpaper combo at the Milwaukee Days Inn was really something to behold.
The Public Museum
We visited the Public Museum in Downtown Milwaukee, which I can only describe as a weird, creepy hybrid of the Natural History Museum and Epcot Center.
They had a ridiculous amount of stuff packed into a very small space on the first floor. Then you go upstairs and they have like 3 more floors just like it.
Jon and Samson the gorilla fell in love
Why did they kill all those birds? Waah!
They had all these weird exhibits with fake archaeologists
I learned that archaeologists have really great fashion sense
a dinosaur with feathers! hilarious!
Jon was sad that his favorite dino the Triceratops was getting eaten, but I told him they were just playing.
they play rough..
we have no idea what this was (they're not big on labels), but it was pretty amazing
this is the really epcot center-esque area. there were little houses representing each country in Europe. This one is the France house (notice the baguettes!).
creepy locked up baby!
ever feel like you're being watched?
then there was a section re-creating olde timey Milwaukee!
check out her very fine sausages!
this is their most famous taxidermy scene- its huge
poor buffalo!
more fake animals. green legs? yeah right!
Kopp's Butter Burgers
We were advised that we had to go to Kopp's for one of their butter burgers and a frozen custard.
these burgers were soo greasy. dexter got to lick up a lot of meat juice.
i think we're reaching our limit for greasy midwestern food.
well, maybe there's a little more room..
don't tell anyone, but frozen custard is just thicker soft serve.
Mouse House Cheese Haus
we're starting to get to big sky country!
we had to stop at the mouse house for some wisconsin cheese.
