We were off again shortly after 8 am. Within 5 minutes of leaving the hotel in Duluth, it was “Good-Bye Minnesota, Hello Wisconsin!” And two hours later it was “Good-Bye Wisconsin, Hello Michigan!” Again, the drive was beautiful! Very green, lots of trees, lots of lakes, wonderful little towns; it was all very rural and small town.
Several times we were along the shore of Lake Superior – what an incredible lake!! At a surface area of 31,700 square miles, it’s the largest freshwater lake on Earth, with a maximum length 350 miles and a maximum width 160 miles. It is a gorgeous lake!!
We left Michigan from Sault Ste. Marie, MI, crossed the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge, and entered Canada in to Sault Ste. Marie, ON.
Here are a couple pictures crossing on the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge:
After a wonderful supper of smokehouse ribs, we went down to the Boardwalk along the Canadian side of the St Marys River to watch the Fourth of July fireworks shot off from the US side.
There was a crescent (fingernail) moon out tonight!
The fireworks were spectacular!
