No Cars!!!


We are now on Mackinac Island. The trip over was un-eventful and enjoyable. We saw one ship along the way, which we normally see many more. We arrived at Mackinac Island around 12:30 to a marina that is at the most 1/2 full. As I stated in an earlier e-mail, the surge from the ferry boats causes issues while docking. You certainly need to make sure you have your spring lines set right away as you come into the dock.

We took out the "foldable" bikes and made our way around the Island. They have a paved trail that circles the entire island along the shores -- 8 miles around. Tonight we sat on the boat and listened to some singer up the hill.

The boy's went shopping for toys/clothes with many places to choose from.
Tomorrow will be a day of relaxing on the island -- along with a 8 mile run and plenty of bike riding.

Internet Update -- Mackinac Island has ATT wi-fi service which they charge for -- I did not look at the cost (but they require a credit card). We are using our Verizon AirCard with the booster antenna. I believe we would still have access without the antenna, but it might be weak.
