Mackinac Island
We had great weather today and took the ferry to Mackinac Island, Michigan's most popular tourist attraction. On the island there are no motorized vehicles. Years ago there was a petition to ban the automobie as the "horseless carriage" startled the horses. To get around you go by horse and buggy or bicycle. Mackinac Island is the home of the Grand Hotel, Fort Mackinac, Arch Rock and other unique places. One thing you see everywhere are FUDGE shops! They are quick to offer samples! Mackinac Island was the site for the making of the movie "It Is You" and "Somewhere In Time." I guess I'll have to rent them :)
It was very WINDY, and COLD on the ferry ride over from the main land.
These photos show the Grand Hotel (taken while on the ferry), a shot of the main street, the Arch Rock, and the Ferry.
