Traveled by ferry to Mackinac Island in Michigan. It is a very interesting place that we both recommend highly! Check out the website www.mackinacisland.org. There are only three ways to get around on the island: by foot, by bicycle or by carriage. No motor vehicles are allowed on the island except for the emergency vehilces that you never see, unless their is an emergency. There are over 600 horses on Mackinac Island. Saddle horses for trail riding, public or private carriage tours and you can even drive your own buggies to tour the historic Mackinac Island State Park. We took a 2 hour carriage tour taking lots of photos until my battery ran down. We plan to go back and actually stay all night on the island the next time on a future trip.
For those of you who saw the time-travel romance movie "Somewhere in Time" with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour, you'll love the island where they filmed at the Grand Hotel.
We headed to Grand Haven, Michigan to see the kids that afternoon. We have had a great time playing with Sage and holding the baby. Enjoyed our short time but we'll be coming back after we explore around southwestern Ontario looking at houses next week.
Time to go...got to hug my grandbabies!!!
