Thursday, July 31





Thursday morning we decided to play tourist rather than play in the water park. Even Ellen was ready for a break from it. We went to breakfast at a popular restaurant. It's called something like Paul Bunyan's Logging Camp. It's an all you can eat place. You pay for your food before you are seated. Everyone is seated at tables that are pushed together. We were seated next to another family of four. They have a few drink options that are included with your meal. They take your order for that and return with them and a plate of homemade donuts - they were really good. They came back about ten minutes later with our food. It's served family style so it's all in bowls that you pass around amongst your group. We had pancakes, sausage, ham, hash browns, and scrambled eggs. It was very good and we all left the table feeling full. I'd definitely recommend this place. It felt like a big lumberjack dining hall.

Afterward we hit the tourist shop section of town. This was where Ellen posed for a picture with a big troll. Carly would not pose. All we bought was a pack of gum for Ellen and a key chain for Kayla's collection. We then moved onto Deer Park. I took a lot of pictures and it will get it's own section of the blog.

There's one just like that near Bemidji way out in the woods somewhere. It even looks like the one you were at but there was no Paul Bunyan. It was one of the best breakfasts I've ever had.
