Mackinaw City Michigan




We went to Mackinaw for the next two days of our trip. We checked in the hotel and went right to the beach because it wasn't very warm and as the evening approached it would only get cooler. After that, we ate at the Dixie Salon which was delicious! Then we took the boys to play golf! I beat Jeff by the way! Golf was a lot of fun. It was so funny to watch...when he would get his ball close the hole he would use his golf club to push or pull his ball into the hole. Next, we were off to take pictures by the 5 mile bridge that connects the two parts of Michigan. The boys loved running down the beach find tiny sea shells. We went to the indoor water park which just their size, it was like a mini Farmington water park inside. We still had more fun ahead. We got some fudge because you have to get fudge if you are in Mackinaw City. We watched an outdoor laser show while we enjoyed our late night fudge snack ( it was about 10:30 by now). It doesn't get dark until 10 o'clock or later there. Therefore, we were up late every night! We called it a night after that and went back to the hotel. The next day we thought about taking the kids to the island but Jeff got talking to someone when he took the kids to the pool who had kids the same age as ours and she said her kids got bored and tired of walking so we decided to wait until they are bigger. We spent the day in town touring the shops and what else, eating! I'm sure I gained over my limit this month! Oh well, vacations only come around once a year! We went back to Onaway that evening and Jeff's mom made spaghetti for dinner. We ate with them and afterwards the guys went with Jeff's uncle to dig for night crawlers (worms) for their fishing adventure the next day.
