Beautiful day! The drive through Wisconsin was very pretty. 3 stops today before reaching our hotel.
Minnehaha Regional Park is one of Minneapolis' oldest and most popular parks. It features a majestic 53-foot waterfall, limestone bluffs, and river overlooks, attracting more than 850,000 visitors annually.
We were there before 9 am and it was very peaceful. Lots of trails and no people. There are bike trails and surreys you can rent.
It's difficult to believe that this is only a few miles from downtown Minneapolis.
128 steps - my knee is not happy with me.
Somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin: Off to find the exact center of the Northwest Hemisphere.
A quarter-mile pathway will lead you to the point that is the exact center of the Northwest Hemisphere where the 45th Parallel of Latitude intersects the 90th Meridian of Longitude. There are only four 45° - 90° locations in the world.
There are only four 45° - 90° locations in the world. Two of these are located in oceans, one is located on a mountainous portion of China and one is located here in Central Wisconsin. Marathon County’s location is the only conveniently accessible marker in the world.
Literally in the middle of someone's cornfield.
We stopped in the really cute city of Wausau, WI to pick up our commemorative coin. If I had known how cute it was, I would have planned on staying longer.
Another really nice hotel tonight - GrandStay Residential Suites
Ended the day with a delicious dinner by the river at Harry's Prohibition Bistro.
