We had a fantastic time. It was so good to get away and not see the same walls at either the offices or at home. We seem to always want to go away but somehow it never seems to happen. Our last trip away from the offices was a year ago when we went to Philly and took 5 days before our seminar started. Contrary to popular belief, most doctors don't take time off, well at least we don't. But every time we do, we kick ourselves for not doing it more. It just makes us so much more relaxed.
We stayed the Mill Creek Hotel in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. It was absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a romantic no kids place. There was not a restaurant in the place but our suite had a full kitchen. We picked up a few things for breakfast and ate out the rest of the time. It was peaceful. No one screaming down a hallway. No screaming kids. Very quiet but close to everything.
We visited with friends who have a condo up there, walked the lakefront, went shopping at Maxfield Street Days, and got some fudge for the kids from a store that is also on Mackinaw Island. We had a riot in this one store - I can't remember the name but it had the word Memories in it. Anyway, it was chock full of lunch boxes, games, candy, etc from the 50's and 60's. It was a really neat store that I bet we spent a couple hours in alone.
We slept a lot and had a very nice relaxing time - the perfect way to celebrate our 29th wedding anniversary.
