Cheboygan , Michigan

4870 total miles

Well Michigan has been pretty awesome! We have seen spectacular sights ,tons of animals and alot of water and with even more light houses.
We drove up the upper peninsula, and stayed in a small town named "Escanaba" while staying there we toured the local National forests and went to see a place called "pictured rocks" along the shores of lake superior.  After leaving  we drove over the Mackinac bridge. Which is a 5 mile suspension bridge that goes over Lake Michigan and Huron, lucky for us we drove over it the day before labor day,  which on labor day they shut the bridge down and have a huge bridge walk lead by the governor for the full length of the bridge.

We rode on a large ferryboat that tooks on to lake Huron and out to "Mackinac Island", Huge tourist trap haha it was a cool island that doesn't allow any motor vehicles,  so everyone is either riding a bicycle or getting a ride from a horse carriage. 

Michigan has some very cool places and very beautiful sights to offer.

  1. WOW that bridge would scare me even more so because there is no barriers in between the two sides. That's cool that they close it down and do a walk over it. How do they get back? LOL. I love to go to Mackinac Island with no cars, that would be awesome. I wish they would do that in all of St. Augustine instead of just certain areas. I bet that was a cool little town though.
