Funtown: Wherever Anner and Heidi are.
Last month Aaron and I met our friends the Kampe's on Madeleine Island located on Lake Superior. Everyone was very excited about taking the ferry from Wisconsin to Mad Island. I thought it was exciting because I had never seen such a cute little ferry!
It had been triple digits and drought so naturally we packed all t-shirts, shorts and multiple swim suites. Except when we arrived the weather turned cold and it was about 65 and rainy. On the up-side we got to hear the thunder, which is a rarity in Seattle.
The rain and thunderstorms, changed our plans of spending everyday sprawled out on the beach. Instead, the kids were forced to run around the house a lot and Aaron and I went hiking in the rain. Still... we managed to eek out a fine time. We ate well and had great social times with the Kampes. Michael took professional photos of Aaron's jewelery which was another bonus (which you've seen the pictures on his newsletter)
You can see we had a good time:
Cute Little Ferry (I counted room for 20 cars...they probably can sqeeze a few more on). |
This is Lake Superior - "The Greatest of Lakes" the signs read. It IS big! It's cold. It's clear. It was very, very nice. |
Here's Heidi and I bundled up for a day at the beach. |
We celebrated Aaron's birthday on the island. The An-I-Mal flip flops were a big hit. It wasn't warm enough to go without socks, but these are pretty fun footwear. |
