Vacation Post #6...Nebraska

So early on June 22nd we left Iowa and headed west to Nebraska for our last hotel stay before getting to Jodi's in Casper, Wyoming. At one of our pit stops I saw this sign, and I laughed out loud.....good one!
Along the road we stopped somewhere in Nebraska for a nice picnic lunch at a neighborhood playground. We arrived in North Platte mid afternoon which gave us time to swim in the indoor pool before dinner. We then went to Whiskey River for dinner where we enjoyed some indoor smores for dessert for free compliments of the nice ladies sitting behind us.
Inside the restaurant was a mechanical horse that each of the kids got to ride for 25 cents.
Carson taking his turn.
Jason really enjoying his turn.
And finally Madison making funny faces at me while having her turn.
Very close to the restaurant was a family fun park with go-carts, mini-train, etc. We were the only ones there and the kids enjoyed some little kiddie go-cart rides.


From there we headed back down the street to Fort Cody, a place with lots of trinkets and toys.
We took these pictures outside before going in. They also had a great sign on their door that I wish I had taken a picture of. It said "Unsupervised children will be given a puppy and some espresso."
