Mackinac Island, MI

8-7-2012: Today we boarded our dog at a local Doggie "spa", hopped on the Shepler's Ferry and rode it to Mackinac Island.  A small island located a few minutes from Mackinaw City, it's a place where people go to buy fudge, ride a bicycle, take long walks, or spend the night in $400 per night hotel rooms.   We opted to buy some fudge :)

There are NO cars allowed on the island so bikes or horses are the only means of getting around.  Thousands of people walking around, tons of fudge shops and other gift shops and dozens of restaurants wore us out after 3 hours.  Kinda like walking around in Disney World. Fun place to visit, but now we can say, "Been there, done that."  No need to repeat it.
The weather is beautiful now.  Finally.
