Milwaukee Trip - Domes and Wedding


On our third day, we needed a quicker activity for the morning, so we had enough time to get to the wedding that afternoon.  We decided to go to the Domes, another iconic Milwaukee place that neither of us had ever been to!  They had just released their new flower show and it was geared toward rainbows and reading.  It was bright and colorful and there were Little Free Libraries everywhere, along with adorable places to read.  I absolutely loved it in there.










The next stop was the Desert Dome.  There were so many unique plants, as well as a Bearded Dragon named Steve.  Nolan and Eric especially liked reading about each of the species.  I could have spent a lot more time in there too, but Simon demanded a quicker pace.











The Tropical Dome was really amazing and there were so many familiar spices, foods, and plants with super cool names.  It was fun to see all the different varieties.  The highlight was the koi pond with many super large, brightly colored fish to observe from the bridge.  We also learned the koi can live to be over 200 years old!  














The Domes also offered interactive children activities that were really fun for little kids.  We were so impressed with our visit and would definitely go back!


The afternoon was spent at Alyssa and Chad's wedding, which took place at Bret and Stacy's house.  We met up with Grandma and Grandpa and had fun celebrating.  Livi and Simon both really enjoyed the dance later in the evening - no one could keep up with Livi's awesome dance moves!!
