Jason and I "ran away" for an overnight trip to Midway to see the IceCastles.
We started our adventure with dinner at Simon's, one of the restaurants at the Homestead. Jason had pot roast and I had a delicious chicken sandwich that our server reluctantly brought to me with rice and not the mashed potatoes for which the restaurant is apparently well known. I almost told her I had a life-threatening allergy to potatoes, just to make her feel better. Because it would have made her feel better to know I could die from eating those potatoes and that was the only, only reason I was even considering not getting them.
The ice castles are spectacular. You can't really capture how immense they are in pictures.
It was fun to go at night when everything is lit in fun colors.
My favorite was the fountain and wishing well where you could donate change to help build wells in communities that need fresh water. I thought it was a nice touch. We had such a fun time, we almost didn't want to come back.
