After a day in Minnesota hitting
both Valleyfair and the Park at Mall of America Greg and I were off
to Wisconsin. If you ever find yourself driving around and happen
on signs like this one then you know you're in Wisconsin.
Here's the gorgeous sight that
greeted us as we pulled into Mt Olympus' parking lot. Forget riding
the Ducks, Dells, cheese shops or cheesy (pun intended) tourist traps
that populate Wisconsin Dells, we had coasters to ride.
Our plans for the day were
to pretty much go to hell as quickly as possible. Yes, we
were there for Hades.
Mt. Olympus used to be called
Big Chief's but with having all of their coasters and go-kart tracks
named after characters from Greek mythology the name change was a no-brainer.
At least unlike some "theme"
parks Mt. Olympus actually tries to theme things like their entrance
here.
