Michigan Road Trip day 1 & 2

And we're off!

Thursday: We left New Hamburg On for Sarnia's Bluewater Bridge on Thursday morning, lunch in Port Huron at the iconic Raven's Inn Cafe.
We stopped for gas in Lapeer and stumbled on a Harley dealership next door. A quick tour through the store, and bought a sticker for the saddle bag!
There was some highway construction that took us off Hwy 6 and onto a beautiful treeline scenic route around Grand Rapids. We arrived in Holland for our first night.

Friday: up and out of the hotel before 9 for a drive along the stately S. Shore Drive, not something we were expecting to see in Holland. Still a very Dutch community, as noted from the business names throughout the town.
First stop at the Paris Eiffel Tower and Fish Hatchery.
Lunch in Traverse City, a visit to Zips Harley Davidson for another sticker and then the scenic 119 through the Tunnel of Trees.

We arrived in Mackinaw City around 7, and ended our long driving day with a soak in the hot tub.Read more
