Arriving on Mackinac Island

 Mackinac Island is a really unique place which is only open to tourist during the summer months, and there are no cars on the island.  The only transportation is bicycle, horses/horse and carriage, or walking.

In order to get to the island, you take a Ferry across the northern part of Lake Huron.  There are views of the Mackinac Bridge as you cross the lake.  The Mackinac Bridge is 5 miles long and connects the upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan.

Here are some pictures of our getting to Mackinac Island and our first minutes getting settled at The Grand Hotel.
