Eau Claire to Franklin (Milwaukee) Wisconsin

Today is Monday 28th May, which is the last Monday in May, and is Memorial Day in the USA.  It is like our ANZAC day, and is a really big day here.
We travelled to Frankin which is a southern suburb of Milwaukee to visit with Dennis and Cindy, who are parents of Katie who works with Richard.  We knew we had the right house when we saw this flag outside.

It was a great familiar welcoming site.
We went with Cindy and Dennis to have a Memorial Day grill (BBQ) at Cindy's brothers place.  It was a lovely relaxing afternoon.  We got to meet a few of Katie's relatives, and got at few stories!
Late in the afternoon we left Tim and Nancy's and Dennis and Cindy took us on a bit of a tour of downtown Milwaukee.  First stop was Miller Park where baseball team the Brewers are based.  It was absolutely huge, and had a roof that could close over if the weather was bad during a game.

Here is a photo us with Dennis and Cindy.  They were just the best hosts!
While we were at Miller Park we had a couple of drinks.  One was a Brandy Old Fashioned Sweet, which Katie said we should try.  Very nice!
On our drive around downtown we stopped at a statue of Fonzie, and got a great tourist photo.

We stayed the night at Cindy and Dennis's place, which was just great of them.  Their hospitality was so great!
