Wednesday of vacation

At the camp, you could check out bikes to ride. So, we decided to do this and go riding for awhile. The bikes were the old school kind which made it nice. The trails were VERY nice and the kids loved it!! We rode for right past 2 hours and when we asked we found out it was close to 10 miles. It was the first time Chloe had ridden and she completely enjoyed it. We realized Kale drives like a wild man and he crashed several times, but than goodness didn't get hurt. He doesn't slow down to take turns so. . . Jonathan and Cody split with the rest of us at one point. While they were riding, Cody fell and busted up his knee. Considering what it looked like, I was impressed he made it back on the bike.

After showering, we headed out. We stopped to eat at Grotto's again. We decided to head to Dover to see what was there. The ride was nice and scenic. We arrived in downtown Dover. There was lots to see and do, but we soon discovered everything closes at 4:30 so we only had 30 minutes to explore. We opted for the state house. After being screened by security we made our way into the Senate room. The kids explored and checked it all out. Then a lady came to talk to us. She answered all the questions and then invited us back to her office. SHE happened to be a Senator. Security came to tell us we were not to be back there and we let them know we had been invited. She gave all the kids Delaware pins to wear. On the way back out, another lady stopped us and gave the kids candy. They were both really nice. There was a new statue of front so we headed around to see it. Then we walked around a bit. It was really pretty and had cooled off a bit.

On the way back to camp, we stopped and ate ice cream. Did I mention we ate ice cream EVERYDAY we were gone and sometimes more than once?!?!? Back at camp, we had chicken, corn, and cucumbers. The food was GREAT! At camp, there were more people there now. Next door, there was a family with a boy about my kiddos age. They all played together and we talked with the parents. It was a nice evening. The kids, again, made smores. After showering we headed off to bed to get ready for our big day on Thursday.
