On Tuesday we went to Rushmore Water slides. It was a beautiful day and it was not crowded at all. We all had a blast on the slides. The kids didn't even want to leave 6 hours later!

This was on the way to the water park. If you look REALLY close you can see Mt Rushmore in the background.





Another one lane tunnel


This was the Iron Mountain Road and it had a lot of U turns.This is one of the pigtail turns.

After we grabbed some dinner we went to Mount Rushmore. This is what the kids have wanted to see the whole trip! It was raining a little when we got there but then it stopped.

The kids got sworn in as Jr Park Rangers for Mt Rushmore. They had to complete a book with a lot of questions in it.
