Relaxing Northern Michigan Style
We spent a gorgeous weekend on one of my favorite places in the world, Mackinac Island at the lovely Iroquois Hotel. This time we had a wonderful lake view room with our own private balcony. Dan played his guitar, and I knit (of course).
The first full day there we had a wonderful hike around the interior of the island.
We ended the hike with lunch at Fort Mackinac, which hosts the most gorgeous view for lunch on the island.
That evening was dinner at The Woods, which requires a lovely carriage ride to the interior of the island for dinner.
And the last day was a private carriage tour to the center of the island with Bob and Belle guided by Molly.
Looking forward to a return visit soon!

BTW, our daughter had a job waitressing at the Iroquois for about 2 weeks – quit before she was fired – it was too classy for her. She was talking to the patrons too much! Ended up at the Irish Pub across and down the street – more her style. . ALSO, the Iroquois is one of our fav places too!

We stayed at the Iroquois a few years ago when John got married. First time for Traver and we had so much fun. Would love to go again sometime. Looks like you guys had a great time!
