After a restful evening in the hotel, we boarded the Mackinac Island ferry and headed over to Mackinac Island.
The ferry ride was a first for the kids.
They loved it even though it was a little chilly as we zoomed over the water!
This quaint little island and town is like stepping back in time.
No cars are allowed.
Want to get around?
You'll have to walk or ride around in a horse drawn carriages.
On the island you'll find a wonderful collection to Catholic history. Perfect for a Catholic field trip. We walked around Marquette Park, viewed the Father Marquette statue, and visited the small hut showing Father Marquette taking part of Mass. We even visited Saint Anne's Catholic Church.
You'll find shops, homes, and lodgings that are from the early 19th century. The town makes you feel like you've stepped back into the Victorian period. As you walk around the shops, you'll smell the delicious scent of fudge. I recommend buying some.
The views are incredible. The homes are gorgeous.
I could easily live here, if the winters weren't so bad!
I'd love to go back sometime for the summer.
Maybe a second honeymoon.
Till Next Time,
Monique
