lakes, lakes and more lakes

Madison, Wisconsin, USA

Madison, Wisconsin's beautiful capital city, was built on an isthmus between two lakes: Lake Mendota and Lake Monona.  Located here is the prestigious University of Wisconsin-Madison, from which this picture is taken.  

Many people in Wisconsin spend the warmer months on the lake boating, canoeing, kayaking, fishing, sailing, tubing, wakeboarding, water-skiing and wind-surfing, to just name a few.  In the winter the lakes freeze over allowing the people to use the area and go cross country skiing, ice fishing, ice-skating, play ice hockey or do snowkiting.  There is always something to do in this wonderful city.
