Wisconsin Cheeseheads - Day 2

  • After a tasty buffet breakfast at the hotel we visited the Wisconsin Maritime Museum. We donned sailor apparel, admired the vast display of model boats, read up on the state's maritime history and toured the "nation's most completely restored" WWII submarine, the impressive USS Cobia.



  • Roamed around Manitowoc County for a bit checking out the festive seasonal displays, creeping on some resident's yards and driveways, and enjoying the fall colors.


  • Back to the hotel in the early afternoon in time to grab our complimentary beers before boarding the party bus, decked out in Pack colors, streamers, balloons, etc. and headed for Green Bay.
  • Arrived in Green Bay with plenty of time to spare before the game, so we wandered around town checking out the Packers paraphernalia, history, fans and whatnot.


  • 7 p.m. kick off -- Pack vs Vikings -- our first NFL game!
  • So much fun to watch our favorite team take on the Gunslinger (one of our favorite players, despite everything that has happened with him on and off the field in the last few years) and pull out the W!

* Thanks for the special wedding present, Dad!
