Great Wolf Lodge is planning to open a massive indoor water park about a mile from from Disneyland. The $300 million, 600 room resort will be the company’s largest indoor-outdoor water park in the United States. We found some concept art for Great Wolf Lodge California that gives us a first look at the water slides and attractions planned for the 10.3-acre resort. Plans always change, but based on this early look it appears they have a whole lot planned for the new California water park.
This Amazing Gingerbread House is Big Enough for a Family to Live In
I tried to convince myself that there would be drawbacks to living in a home made of cookies and candy. The gingerbread walls would never support my flat screen TV. My son would constantly take pieces from the roof for a snack. And, of course, we all know that only mean witches in fairy tales can live in a candy house. But as I stood there in front of the the enormous gingerbread house at Great Wolf Lodge, I couldn’t help but think that having a house made of sugar would be simply amazing.
Looking for a Winter Escape? Park City, Utah is a Winter Wonderland for Families
I’m originally from southern California, so the idea of playing in the snow is something that still seems like a treat. I remember the first time it snowed after we moved to Oregon. My wife and I stood out there in the snow taking pictures to send back to our friends (and I’m sure our neighbors were laughing at us at the time). A lot has changed over the years, but our family always looks forward to winter and opportunities to spend some time in the snow.
