Anne-Marie-Marie and I Pulled the Airstream to Munising Michigan. The RV Park was booked up for the weekend, but could allow us to stay for two nights. We drove over 300 miles to get here, and the weather was cool, and wet, and we were too beat to be able to do any updating. I again was tired, the computer was tired, and I tried to make it work better, and I failed. The last two days I have been working to unfix the computer, so I could make updates. With only one whole day to explore this area rich with history, we did two boat rides, and one bus tour. This is how we started the day on the waters of Lake Superior.
Our Home. This is the RV Park at the Wandering Wheels Campground. There is a Festival Here this weekend in Munising, and there is just no space after tonight.
The Glass Bottom Shipwreck Tours was our first activity of the day. The weather was warming up and getting better as the day progressed, and we had seats on the top open deck, and it was windy but not cold.
This is the Captain at the wheel, and her First Mate. These two did a wonderful job of narration throughout the trip.
The shipwrecks were across the water, close to Grand Island. The first wreck that we arrived at could be viewed over the side of the tour boat. The number of passengers was too large for all of us to view at the same time, so we were divided into two groups, the lower deck viewed first, while the upper deck folks looked over the side. The view from the lower deck was incredible. The viewing windows were at the bottom of wells, and the glass was at the bottom, the light is natural light. The Captain maneuvered the boat back and forth, to allow all to view the entire vessel.
Another view of the shallowest vessel. The faintest picture is of a deeper ship, and it has no upper deck, this is looking at the inside of the ribs.
This lighthouse is the first on the Grand Island, 1868. There was only one keeper, and he worked here for 40 years, and the lighthouse was decommissioned in 1913.
We are moving the trailer today to Sault St Marie, Michigan, to rest up and tour the Locks.
