Ike when he saw the big fountain
The big fountain in Dome Platz.
We found this cool statue that reminded me of Anders getting car sick and throwing up on our way down, then Rex is a sympathetic puker and joined in the fun. Luckily we were close to the hotel for the clean-up.

Salty guy.
Ike finally fell asleep. He was so grumpy. Five is the perfect time for a nap right?
Rex plugged his nose the whole time because he didn't like the smell in the mine. I love the look on Chloe's face. It was so fun the loved the slides in the caves. We got to go on two the second one they loved because they knew not to be scared. We got to ride a train in, and ride a boat with an impressive light show. The boat ride went across a salt lake they make to harvest the salt. They pump up the salt from the bottom because it sinks.
After the salt mines we went for dinner in the little town down from the mine, and we had to be fast to make our bus. We almost missed our bus in the afternoon because we took too long with lunch. So we go to a cafe and the kids wanted schnitzel like it talks about in the song my favorite things, but they didn't have it on the menu and we had to be fast. Clair was miffed about it and her mom got miffed and informed her the trip wasn't about the food but making it where we need to be on time, so we don't miss out. Well a bit later while waitng for our food out of the blue chloe pipes up in a gravely voice "this trip isn't about the food, it is about getting to the bus on time!" We were laughing so hard. I am glad Tennille had such a good sense of humor, we did have fun but we are all tired.
The drive home Ike with a nutella beard. We may have resorted to giving it to him on a spoon, no joke.
The hills were a alive and I may look this chipper tomorrow after I get some rest; but I am so glad that Mike sees me like this and gave me this little present to laugh at after a fun, hard, no sleep trip.
