Mackinaw Island and Mall of America





Yesterday we visited Mackinaw Island by ferry. Toured Fort Mackinaw and the Island which had only horses , bicycles or walking to get around. We spent the night in Mackinaw City which was on the mainland. This morning we drove through Wisconsin to Minnesota and visited the Mall of America. Staying tonight in Belle Plaine, Minnesota just south of Minneapolis.

Still practicing all technology 11 days to go before we leave Reedsville!





While Bop checked out the special effects of the new camera Rainy swam with the boys at Don and Marylou's. Our pictures show the "Fish Face" effect which may be more appropriate by the end of the trip!! Then I practiced adding this page to our blog.
