Our Anniversary Trip to Mackinac Island


The Mackinaw Bridge



The Grand Hotel











Brian and I recently celebrated our anniversary and spent a couple of days up north along the lakeshore. We took the ferry from the lower penninsula on MI, parralleling the Mackinaw Bridge, up to Mackinac Island. It was a beautiful day and we rented a tandem and biked the 8.2 mile path along the coast. Then we hiked through the woods in the center of the island which rises to a bluff peaking at arch rock. The view is fantastic! No cars are allowed on the island. Everyone travels by foot, bike or horse. I'm posting a brief video so you can see the view in panorama. The Grand Hotel photo is especially for our friends the Andersons who we are trying to convince to make a trip up to see us next year.
