Madison, Wisconsin

Today I arrived in Madison Wisconsin. I was happy to go there, because my name is in the title. I want to learn why the town was named Madison. I researched on my laptop and it turns out that it was named for President James Madison, who was president at the time it was made capital.

While in Wisconsin, I went on the Ice Age trail. It was the only thing that I wanted to do in Wisconsin. It took me three hours to hike the entire trail, and it was starting to get dark as I headed back. I had gotten some good wildlife photos on the way though.

By the time I was off of the trail, it was 6:00 and I was absolutely exhausted. I got some dinner from Mcdonalds and ate as I rode back to my hotel in a cab. I wrote in my diary for a little, and then fell asleep reading a book.

I woke up early the next morning and went souvenir shopping. I only wanted a snowglobe, and I found one really cheap at a gas station. Then, I ate lunch and shopped around some more.
