After our visit to the Dells, we headed back south in Wisconsin, where we spent the night in a town called New Glarus. New Glarus, or Little Switzerland, prides itself on its Swiss heritage. All of the buildings are in Swiss style, there are lots of Swiss crafts shops and the town has some kind of Swiss festival literally every other weekend. Most of the tourists there seemed to be older people, it was a pretty sedate place, but a nice spot to spend the night. One big plus, we were having a huge craving for fondue, which we were more than able to satisfy in New Glarus!
After New Glarus, on our way out of Wisconsin, we spent the day at Old World Wisconsin, a living history museum celebrating the different cultures that settled Wisconsin in the 1800s. Old World Wisconsin was just great; it was like a little like a low key Williamsburg; the girls had a terrific time there.
