Lake of the Ozarks

The last weekend of September we went to the Lake of the Ozarks with my brother, Dwain, his wife, Jennifer, and their son, TJ. Jen's mom has a condo on the lake, and they were kind enough to invite us for a 3-day weekend with them. We had a blast!! It was by far one of the best vacations we have ever had. We didn't "do" a whole lot, but it was sooooooo nice to sit on the screened-in deck overlooking the lake, read a book, play Guitar Hero, and just generally relax.


Lily and TJ had a lot of fun playing together. They loved to get into the kitchen cabinets and crawl around, opening and shutting doors and spinning around on the lazy susan. They were hilarious.


We did do one touristy thing. We went to HaHaTonka State Park and saw the castle up there. We enjoyed a nice picnic lunch outside, and drove around the lake and did a little sight-seeing. It's so pretty there.
On our last day, Koichi and I went to Bridal Cave and took a cave tour. It was really neat. I'm glad I don't suffer from clausterphobia because there were some pretty tight squeezes through the tour. We even got to see a bat hanging from the ceiling. The ceiling where he was hanging from is only about 5 1/2 feet tall, so we had to duck under the bat. Pretty cool.
