Monday: The Voyage Home
Yesterday we left about lunch time to head home. Our stopping point (after about 6 hours of driving) was to be St. Ignace. But before we could leave, Simon HAD to visit Nelson's One Last Time.
And look at the boat One Last Time:
This time, Escanaba wasn't the stopping point but the mid-way point on the drive. While Thomas and I stocked up on sugary treats at Swedish Pantry ("The Best Pastries IN THE WORLD!"), Simon and Frederick trotted about the downtown Memorial Park:
Simon announced an hour after we left Escanaba that he now wants a yacht. I asked, "I thought you wanted a houseboat?" So now he wants a House Yacht.
This was the first rainy day of our trip, and it rained the WHOLE day.
Simon was hesitant to use this public restroom but aside from the smell, it wasn't TOO terrible.
A rocky beach:
More rocks:
And more rocks:
This is our hotel in St. Ignace, The Bavarian Haus. As when we were in Escanaba, Simon and Thomas headed out to a restaurant while Frederick and I swam in the pool, cooked in the hot tub and then "rested" in the room. (This photo was taken from the parking lot of the Hillside Diner, the restaurant they ate at.) Simon reported that the food was remarkably bad. Thomas would only say that it wasn't the worst food he has ever had.
Here's a little tour of our palatial room at said Haus:
And here's what it was like on the beachfront that you could see from our balcony:

You certainly have been living in comfort. Love the watery sounds by the lake.
