Dells: How much time to allow?

The Wisconsin Dells. How much time is needed to be allotted to do them? I realize there is the Americka park too in Wisconsin before the Dells if I was to land in Chicago to start a Northern Midwest excursion for a few days.

Timberfalls can be done in 5 minutes.. 20 if you want a few Avalanche rides (Its JUST the coaster.. a logflume, bumper boats, a skyscraper, and minigolf.)
Riverview I think got rid of its bigger rides, so I dont know whats left.. but once more its mainly go-kart tracks with a few crappy looking waterslides. I spent maybe an hour at it in 05. I rode rode the 3 coasters and like 4 flats before walking back across the street to Mt. Olympus....

And as for MtO.. A lots changed from when I went.. But I bet the Karts are still SLOW and..well.. crappy. Even the biggest track they had would ONLY run 5 or 6 cars! I had to wait in line for 30mins.. And there were only like 15 people in the line... As far as the coasters went.. Nothing had lines, not even Hades (less than a month old at the time) -- I guess if you just did stuff once you'd be out in less than an hour, but a few of the MtO coasters were worth re-riding (as is Avalanche)

^ Theme park go-karts.. ALWAYS suck.
Its always just better to go to your local go-kart club.

I'm not crazy about go carts so maybe I'd do one track. Last time I did them was in Pigeon Forge on a Special night at a track. It sounds like I could swiftly move through the area. Before going northwest to Minnesota I might feed my sports side and go to Lambeau Field. We'll see.

I get the sense Comotown shouldn't be missed, even if it's a few minutes. I see a trio in MN I could do; Comotown, valleyfair! and MoA. For some weird reason I feel I might want to go to a Twins game rather than a Brewers game on the side.

Are you going to hit Little A-Merrick-A as well when you go to the Dells? It's not that far away and has 4 credits

I saw that was south of Dells so that would be on the radar. Amerricka and Dells could be done in the same day I suppose?

That's what we are planning to do on Saturday after Coaster Craze this Friday...
that or we'll spend all of Saturday in the Dells and hit Little Amerricka on the way home on Sunday.
