Photos of our first vacation with our dog (in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin USA). The Brat Stop (pronounced “brawwt stawwp” because “brat” is short for “bratwurst”) is a bar, restaurant and cheese shop. It’s where Bob and I shared our first meal as husband and wife on our wedding day (3/25/08). We cut our wedding cake there and shared it with random staff and guests at the bar. Bob had three beers bought for him.
In the last picture, those cylinders were made of snow and in a couple of days Lake Geneva’s annual snow sculpting competition was going to begin. Sadly, the warmest winter in years was kind of spoiling it. It didn’t look like those huge snow cakes were going to last long.
Mick, it'll be a long time before you see me leave the country again. In fact, I'm hoping it's never. Yes, the Americans have stolen many city/lake/etc. names from other parts of the world. This is another one.
For a minute there thought you were having a vacation in europe, didn't know there was two Lake Geneva's.
