Being on the SS Badger makes me want to quit my job and go to work there.

Nice ride. Wear a jacket on the boat. Lots of things to do if you have kids. Breakfast buffet was $9.75 which I thought was reasonable. And it was good. Not overcrowded. Also serves adult beverages. 2 adults and 1 car ONE WAY was $235.00.
