Wisconsin Dells

During this past weekend, I went to Wisconsin Dells with my wife and her two younger brothers.  I have always liked to go there as a kid when my family took the yearly vacations.  We used to go to the Kalahari resort all the time!  It is one of the better resorts in Kalahari, in my opinion.  The indoor water park is by far the largest one and an indoor theme park that had multiple activities available.  The theme park consisted of go carting, laser tag, rock climbing, movie theatre, obstacle climbing, huge arcade area, bowling alley, a mini golf course, and even a ferris wheel located inside!  The place was so full with kids that it was hard for us walk around and maneuver through areas.  The place was glowing with lights and attractions that seemed to draw their customers more and more to spending their money.  This was also during St. Patricks Day weekend as well so the theme leaned more towards leprechauns and shamrocks.  The arcade games were not typical arcade games.  Most of them had huge flat screens and were very eye catching.  Some of them were even touch screen games like ‘fruit ninja’, which is an app game on smart phones.  Something that I thought was very interesting because transitioning it from your phone to a 46 inch flat screen tv made it that much COOLER!!  Other games that I thought they emphasized on were the wheel of fortune and deal or no deal games.  They were displayed on very large tv screens and made the experience quite entertaining!  It gave you the feeling that you were really playing the games and had a sense of ‘wow-ness’.  I thought that they did a great job in pulling their customers into these places with their unique attractions.  Even though the games were ranging from $2 to even $5, it was very easy to just play them.  This probably was because the only way to play the games were if you had a card and had credit in them!  It’s like having a credit card with a balance but you use it when you want to play a specific one[game].  All you do it swipe and there you go.  We noticed that our credits and money went down really fast when we starting playing.  All of a sudden, the money was done and we finished.  Overall, this experience went well and Wisconsin Dells did exactly what they wanted to do.  Keep their customers happy while making lots and lots of money from their customers!
