Mackinac Island

Monday, August 5, 2019 - Cheboygan, MI

Alex and Allyssa arrived very late last night, so we let them sleep in a little before heading for the ferry to take us to Mackinac Island.  We made the 10:30 ferry.  It was the last ferry this morning that went under the Mackinac bridge before going to the island. 



But I did not get any good pictures of us going under the bridge.  The kids seem to really enjoy it.  :)

Once we got to the island we looked for a place to eat lunch and we decided on Goodfellows, but they did not open until noon, so we went for a short walk.


Lunch was ok, service could have been better.  After lunch we rented bicycles and headed out.

We made a stop at Devil's Kitchen for some climbing and pictures.

Once we made it around the island we returned our bikes, then did some walking.  We walked up to Fort Mackinac.  We did not go in, but I did take a picture of the kids on the cannon.
Then we continued on up the hill to the Governor's Summer Residence.
It is only open on Wednesday's from 11 to 1.  But it is beautiful from the outside.
From there we continued our walk to Skull Cave.  We all agreed it did not look much like a skull.
Our final stop before heading back down was the Fort Mackinac Post Cemetery.

It was another wonderful day!
