WISCONSIN Dells - AKVAPARKOVAYA CAPITAL OF THE WORLD (continued, part 4) A little bit about our town. Wisconsin Dells - The small (population about two and a half thousand persons) tourist town in summer, which comes a lot of tourists, as well as students from different countries, all with the same program "Work And Travel. Wisconsin Dells can be translated as "hollow", but with the same success as "rock." Given what I saw over the summer - is staying on the second meaning. The beauty of this town - flaky rock on the banks of the River Wisconsin. They consist of sandstone, according to scientists, formed 500 million years ago, when this area was the bottom of the sea. And breaks the surface of the earth and Wisconsin River were formed during the last glacial period. Wisconsin Dells, flaky rock, however, the Indians there is a legend in this regard. According to their legends, such bizarre rocks could be formed only when the Great Spirit himself in the form of a giant snake crawling through a narrow gorge to the Great Lakes. And so, while he pushed his way through the rocks to his goal, he slightly "scratched" the nearby cliffs, leaving them with intricate patterns. Rocks and really very beautiful, like that in Eastern Europe will not meet. True, in fairness we must admit that many parts of the landscape reminded us of his native land. In general, these rocks, together with two lakes (assuming the lower and upper part of Lake Lake Delton, separated by a dam, ca. Ed.) Are the main attractions of the town. Tourism is organized very professionally, so bringing in tourists to look at this beauty on the boats of different models and several different routes. Here is a list of these options: Boat tour (excursion boat) Dells army Ducks (army boats Dells) Original Ducks (original boat) boat tour (excursion boat) lower boat tour (excursion boat on the lake bottom) upper boat tour (tour by boat on the upper part of the lake) boat tour adventure (tour boat adventure) Mark Twain boat tour (excursion boat on the works of Mark Twain) In principle, everything can be seen rolling and once. But no, the inhabitants of the town (with the help of a good advertising campaign - what we should learn from them) will convince you that you have to try all routes, and on several occasions. Near an army boat tour, which we tried first, called "Ducks TOUR» (duck - duck) on the name of the old military "amphibious" boat, which gave "for punishment" to tourists after the Second World War. Such a boat can travel both on water and on land. Thrill enough, especially when we went to disperse in water or when the driver-wag said - "Well enough, now begins the real extreme, fasten your seatbelts." All in a panic start to fidget on the seats in search of belts - so what? They are not. Start material: Read more:
