Mackinac Island

No motor vehicles allowed on Mackinac Island so this and bicycles are the standard method of travel. In the winter people use snowmobiles or snowshoes when needed.
Merry, Jeni and one of the dance girls investigating Lake Huron.


I thought I would take a short break from all stuff about Burkina to post on some of the American happenings. After all this is a blog to show Africa what we do over here too. By the way, they love this thing.
Anyway, Sunday a car load of us went up to meet some of the Just Dance crew and watch the Lilac festival parade.
Typical of northern Michigan, we started in 50*F (10* C) and rain. However, it quickly dried up and turned to a sunny 70* (21* C) Perfect for walking. This time we just walked part of the island.
The parade was pretty cute. It was mostly businesses from the island, but quite creative. The lilacs were just beautiful!
